Drainage Area given Runoff Rate of Rainwater from Bridge during Rainstorm Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Catchment Area for Rainstorm = Peak Rate of Runoff/(1.00083*Runoff Coefficient*Intensity of Rainfall)
Acatchment = qp/(1.00083*Cr*I)
This formula uses 4 Variables
Variables Used
Catchment Area for Rainstorm - (Measured in Square Meter) - Catchment Area for Rainstorm is the total area of the catchment from where total runoff water is collected.
Peak Rate of Runoff - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Peak Rate of Runoff is the maximum rate of discharge during the period of runoff caused by a storm.
Runoff Coefficient - Runoff Coefficient is a dimensionless coefficient relating the amount of runoff to the amount of precipitation received.
Intensity of Rainfall - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Intensity of Rainfall is the ratio of the total amount of rain (rainfall depth) falling during a given period to the duration of the period.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Peak Rate of Runoff: 1.256 Cubic Meter per Second --> 1.256 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Runoff Coefficient: 0.5 --> No Conversion Required
Intensity of Rainfall: 16 Millimeter per Minute --> 0.000266666666666667 Meter per Second (Check conversion here)
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
Acatchment = qp/(1.00083*Cr*I) --> 1.256/(1.00083*0.5*0.000266666666666667)
Evaluating ... ...
Acatchment = 9412.18788405622
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
9412.18788405622 Square Meter --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
9412.18788405622 9412.188 Square Meter <-- Catchment Area for Rainstorm
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
