Catchment Area given Drainage Density Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Catchment Area = Length of all Streams of Catchment/Drainage Density
A_catchment = L_s/D_d
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Catchment Area - (Measured in Square Meter) - Catchment Area is an area of land where all water flows to a single stream, river, lake or even ocean.
Length of all Streams of Catchment - (Measured in Kilometer) - Length of all Streams of Catchment is the total length of all streams present in any particular region.
Drainage Density - Drainage Density is the ratio of total length of all streams of the catchment divided by its area.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Length of all Streams of Catchment: 80 Kilometer --> 80 Kilometer No Conversion Required
Drainage Density: 40 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

A_catchment = L_s/D_d --> 80/40

Evaluating ... ...

A_catchment = 2

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

2 Square Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

2 Square Meter <-- Catchment Area
