Sediment Volume between Old Zero and New Zero Bed Level Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Volume of Sediment = Volume of Sediment to be Distributed-(Area at the New Zero Elevation*(Difference in the Elevation (FRL and Original bed)-Height above Bed))
Vo = Vs-(Ao*(H-ho))
This formula uses 5 Variables
Variables Used
Volume of Sediment - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Volume of Sediment is the transported volume sediment between old zero and new zero bed level.
Volume of Sediment to be Distributed - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Volume of Sediment to be Distributed is the volume of sediment in a reservoir and the volume of sediment filling up the conical portion of the reservoir up to the original filling depth.
Area at the New Zero Elevation - (Measured in Square Meter) - Area at the New Zero Elevation refers to a reference coordinate surface used for vertical positions, such as the elevations of Earth-bound features also known as a zero-elevation surface.
Difference in the Elevation (FRL and Original bed) - (Measured in Meter) - Difference in the Elevation (FRL and Original bed) of the reservoir is the depth of the reservoir at the Full Reservoir Level (FRL).
Height above Bed - (Measured in Meter) - Height above Bed is the elevation from surface of zero elevation to which heights of various points are referenced.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Volume of Sediment to be Distributed: 455 Cubic Meter --> 455 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Area at the New Zero Elevation: 50 Square Meter --> 50 Square Meter No Conversion Required
Difference in the Elevation (FRL and Original bed): 11 Meter --> 11 Meter No Conversion Required
Height above Bed: 2 Meter --> 2 Meter No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
Vo = Vs-(Ao*(H-ho)) --> 455-(50*(11-2))
Evaluating ... ...
Vo = 5
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
5 Cubic Meter --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
5 Cubic Meter <-- Volume of Sediment

What is a Reservoir?

A Reservoir is an artificial lake where water is stored. Most reservoirs are formed by constructing dams across rivers. A reservoir can also be formed from a natural lake whose outlet has been dammed to control the water level. The dam controls the amount of water that flows out of the reservoir.
