Interpretation:
The volume of rain for a height of 9 cm collected in a cylindrical gauge needs to be calculated given an initial volume of 6 ml collected for a height of 2 cm rain.
Concept introduction:
The volume 'V' occupied by a cylinder of height 'h' and radius 'r is given as:
Answer to Problem 2STP
(C) 27 ml
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Volume of rain for a height (h) of 2 cm is, V = 6 ml
Calculation:
Step 1: Calculate the radius 'r' of the cylinder
Based on equation (1):
Step 2: Calculate the volume of rain of height 9 cm
Based on equation (1):
Therefore, the volume of rain of height 9 cm collected in a cylindrical gauge is 27 mL.
