Suppose that we have a reservoir that has a surface area of 50 acres, with an average depth when full of 15 meters. [Conversion: 1 acre = 4096.86 square meters] If the reservoir were to start out with a depth of 0 meters and eventually be filled to a depth of 15 meters, (1) how much volume of water will have been added in the filling of the reservoir from 0 meters depth to 15 meters depth? (2) What mass...
