Good question. It's not completely necessary in this build, but most rain gauges do come with some sort of funnel at the top and the project is to replicate what you'd find in the real world. And as the project is meant for young learners, it's not necessary to be 100% precise.
You're right! It's not needed in this build, but since most rain gauges do come with some sort of funnel, and we're trying to replicate what we would see in the real world, I think it's appropriate to include it (if only for aesthetic reasons). Besides, it's better than just tossing the top peace in the trash :-)
Hahahahahaha!!! Obviously, you do not know science!!!! The gauge only records the height of accumulated water inside the container, which it should be equal outside!! If you have an area of 1m2, that would be 1000mmx1000mm×8mm=8'000,000 mm3. 1 liter =100×100×100=1'000,000mm3 Therefore 8'000,000÷1'000,000= 8 liters!!!
@@dvdortiz9031 that last part is kind of confusing Allow me to explain 1m³ = 1000 L of water Therefore 1 L = 1/1000 m³= 0.001 m³ We have 8mm of height of rainfall and the volume would be 1m*1m*0.008m= 0.008m³ of water We know that 1l = 0.001m³ Which means for every 0.001m³ 1L of water is collected That is for 0.008m³ 8L of water is collected
“Hayyyyyy, welcome back”
Thanks for the vid this was my project at school and it is super helpful 😊
Very nicely explained.
Thanks a lot. This was my project given to me at my college
The same to me
I'm glad it helped.
@@CuriousPolyglots wow
at least my kids can make this if there is a rain
Smart 😊😊
what purpose does the funnel serve?
It's just for aesthetics, as a real rain gauge would have a funnel and we wanted to replicate that.
This is project to me in 7th class
Is it necessary to invert the top into the bottle like a funnel?

How much liters bottle needned for this rain gauge?
Sorry for bad inglish 😂😂
Any size is fine.
The funnel is not needed.

!
8 millimeters of rain?? But, 8 millimeters are 8 liters approximately, you don't have 8 liters in that bottle
Hahahahahaha!!!

Allow me to explain
1m³ = 1000 L of water
Therefore 1 L = 1/1000 m³= 0.001 m³
We have 8mm of height of rainfall and the volume would be 1m*1m*0.008m= 0.008m³ of water
We know that 1l = 0.001m³
Which means for every 0.001m³ 1L of water is collected
That is for 0.008m³ 8L of water is collected
