Textbook Question
Chapter 24, Problem 24P
To estimate the size of a new dam, you have to determine the total volume of water
| Date | Mid-Jan. | Mid-Feb. | Mid-Mar. | Mid-Apr. | Mid-June. | Mid-Sept. | Mid-Oct. | Mid-Nov. | Mid-Dec. |
| Flow, m3/s | 30 | 38 | 82 | 125 | 95 | 20 | 22 | 24 | 35 |
Determine the volume. Be careful of units, and take care to make a proper estimate of flow at the end points.
