What are Acre-foot and Centiliter

Definition of Acre-foot

An acre-foot is a unit of volume commonly used in the United States to measure large-scale water resources, such as reservoirs and rivers. It represents the volume of one acre of surface area to a depth of one foot. This equates to approximately 43,560 cubic feet or about 1,233 cubic meters, used extensively in agriculture, water management, and civil engineering.

Definition of Centiliter

A centiliter is a metric unit of volume that is equal to one hundredth of a liter. It is commonly used in countries that adopt the metric system to measure smaller volumes of liquid. One centiliter is equivalent to 10 milliliters or about 0.338 fluid ounces. Its frequent use includes culinary measurements, laboratory volumes, and in scenarios where precision is important.
