Rainfall is measured as depth on the surface of the Earth, typically in mm. We know the volume of water in the rain gauge: 1414 cubic centimetres. We know need to know the area of the Earth that this volume fell on. This would be the area of the funnel opening that points up to the sky to catch the rain. We know the diameter is 24 cm. So we need to determine the area of a circle with a diameter of 24 cm. The equation to use is: area = pi * radius^2. Since the radius of a circle is half the diameter, the equation is:
So area is <span>3.14159 * 12^2
= 452.39 cm^2
Volume = depth * area
depth = volume/area
depth = </span>1414/452.39
= 3.13 cm = 31.3 mm
Answer:
Water is transported from one area to another area that has little water.
Water is collected and salt allowed to settle at the bottom.
Explanation:
Desalination of water is a process of the removal of salts and minerals from the water. This process is used for the production of water suitable for human consumption or irrigation.
Natural desalination occurs trough the hydrologic cycle when seawater evaporates. On the other hand, manipulated desalinization is an energy expensive alternative to natural desalination.

Distention from accumulating gas and fluid impede venous return, leading to bowel wall ischemia.
<u>Explanation:</u>
When the bowel lumen is obstructed, the gases and fuids starts accumulating as a repose to the obstruction. The accumulated fluid and gases results in the swelling or enlargement. This will result in the production of electrolytes and water inside the mumen that is in obstruction. The wall of the bowle will also enlarge and becomes swollen.
As more and more fluid and gas gets accumulated in the bowel, the bowel wall will be enlarged and as there is an increase in the pressure due to this accumulation, the fluid starts to leak from the wall. This will enter peritoneum and necrosis. This will result in an acute emergency when it becomes serious.
