In a shower, 5 cm of rain falls. The volume of water that falls on 1.5 hectares of ground is: Correct Answer 750 cubic meter

1 hectare = 10,000 Sq.m

So, Area = (1.5 x 10000) Sq.m

Depth = 5/100 m = 1/20 m

Therefore, Volume = Area X Depth = 15000 x (1/20)= 750 cu.m

Acid rain is any form of precipitation with high levels of nitric and sulfuric acids. It can also occurs in the form of snow,fog and tiny bits of dry materials that settle on the ground. rotting vegetation and erupting volcanoes release some chemicals that causes acid rain but majority is because of the human activities such as burning of fossil fuels, factories and auto mobiles. Acid rain has many ecological effects, few of which are given below. Which of the following, if true, would weaken the conclusion about the effects of acid rain on the environment?
