Assignment 1 Q1. Are all types of water good for human consumption? Q2. Define hydrologic cycle and discuss the impact of urbanization to the hydrologic cycle. Q3. Do you know the source of river water? Give short explanation. Q4. A catchment area has water issues throughout the year. During rainy season, although the volume of water is adequate to fulfill the demand; it is sometimes too much and causes flooding. Meanwhile, during dry season, water becomes insufficient. Provide a solution to this issue. Q5. Drainage area of the Sembrong river, Batu Pahat is 11,839 km². If the mean annual runoff is 144.4 m³/s and the average annual rainfall is 1.08 m, estimate the evaporation losses of the area. Answer: 0.7 m WE PRODUCE PROFESSIONALS Q6. A watershed with surface area of 3100 km² received 170 cm of precipitation during a one- year period. During the same year, the outflow was 50 m³/sec. Compute the amount of water lost due to the combined effects of evaporation, transpiration and infiltration. Also estimate the runoff from the watershed. Provide your answer in cm. Answer: Total lost = 119 cm, R = 51 cm UTHM With wisdom. We Explore Q7. A lake has an area of 15 km². During a specific month, evaporation was 84 mm, average inflow to the lake was 1.5 m³/s, the average outflow from the lake was 1.3 m³/s, and the water level for the lake was observed to increased by 110 mm. Determine the precipitation in mm during that month? Answer: 159.44 mm Q8. An amount of 4.5 cm of water is evaporated from a 150-hectare vertical walled reservoir for two days period. Stormwater flows into the reservoir at a constant rate of 5.5 m³/s during the period. Compute the volume of water released during the period if the water level in the reservoir was the same at the beginning and at the end of the day. Give your answer in hectare-cm.
