Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

An experiment using a Weighing Bucket Rain Gauge during a snowstorm indicates a total weight gain of 7 kg. If the density of snow is about 0.1 g/cm³, calculate the volume of the snow that accumulated?

💡 Hint: Use the formula for volume based on mass and density.

Question 2

You have both a Weighing Bucket Rain Gauge and a standard rain gauge. After a rain event, the standard gauge shows 50 mm of rain while the weighing gauge shows 35 kg of precipitation. Assume that the density of water is 1 g/cm³. How much water does the weighing gauge indicate?

💡 Hint: Determine the volume of water in liters and convert it back to millimeters for rainfall depth.
