c. Area Convert the area of the lake from acres to square feet [ft2]
You will need the conversion factor 1 acre = 43, 560 ft2 . You should add
this conversion factor to your conversion factors page in your notes.
This number tells you how much the lake would rise if there was only
inflow.
e. Convert Outflow rate [ft3/sec] to depth in inches.
You don’t need to do those unit conversions again. Just multiply the
inflow result by the ratio of outflow to inflow.
This number tells you how much the lake would fall if there was only
outflow.
Check: should the outflow depth change be less or more than inflow?
h. Be sure you included the units in your answer above. Draw a box
around your answer.
