What is h?
Answered by ains
wouldn't it be like height ??
Answered by Ms. Sue
I don't think so. Only two of your answer choices have an h.

What does g/cm mean?
Answered by ains
grams/ centimeters
Answered by Dan
One of them should be g/mm that's for sure.
Answered by ains
sooo one is g/mm would the other be g/cm ??
Answered by Ms. Sue
A gram is a unit of mass (weight).
Millimeters and centimeters are units of length. I've never seen rainfall reported in these units.

im so confused so the answer choices i am saying them wrong??
Answered by Ms. Sue
I suggest you ask your teacher to explain them to you.
Answered by Reiny
in/h ---> inches per hour
cm/h ---> cm per hour

these are the only two that make sense.

If you are in the US, it would be in/h
elsewhere it would be cm/h
