A one foot rise in water level |
2019-09-15 |
|
From Stuart:
If a lake were to rise one foot - how many linear feet would it spread onto the shore line ?
What is the correlation - 1 foot of a rise = 10 feet onto the shore ? Does it depend on the lake
size - if so Lake Ontario in Canada.

From Don:
The cross section of a 5-meter trough is an isosceles trapezoid with a 2-meter lower base, a 3-meter upper base and an altitude of 2 meters. Water is running into the trough at a rate of 1 cubic meter per minute. How fast is the water level rising when the water is 1 meter deep?
