Consider a line of thunderstorms is 10 miles wide and suppose (for simplicity) that the rainfall rate everywhere within this band of thunderstorms is 1 inch per hour. Assume that the line of thunderstorms is oriented in a north-south direction and that it moves due east. How much rain will fall at a location over which the storms pass if the storms are racing by at 50 mph?

Respuesta :

The amount of rainfall at a location over which the storm passes will have 1 inch of rainfall

How much rain will fall at a location over which the storms pass if the storms are racing by at 50 mph?

Generally, The width of the squall line of the thunderstorm =10miles

The rate of precipitation =1inches per hours

The speed of thunderstorm =50mph

Hence, the squall line of 10 miles  thunderstorm will pass at Location which will be crossed at  the speed of 50mph

In conclusion, As the precipitation rate is 1inch per hour, the location which will be crossed in 1 hour by the thunderstorm will  have 1 inch of rainfall
