Q-4: Following observations were made for conducting a water budget of a reservoir over a period of one month : Average surface area = 10 km?, Mean surface inflow rate = 10 cumec, Mean surface outflow rate = 15 cumec, Rainfall = 10 cm, Fall in the reservoir level = 1.5 m, Pan evaporation = 20 cm. Assuming the pan-factor as 0.7, estimate the average seepage discharge from the reservoir during the month.
