1 acre = 43,560 square feet

1 inch = 1/12 foot

Volume = 43,560 x 1/12 = 3,630 cubic feet = 27,154.3 gallons (rounded)

How many raindrops fall on 1 acre if 1 inch rainfall was to fall?

There are far too many variables to say. The answer to this will be relative to your location, and you would need to take some measurements in your local area. The best way to calculate this would be to take a sample (say 1 foot square) and multiply your results by the number of square feet in one acre. A suggested means would be to use a rain gauge with a 1 foot square funnel, to measure total rain fallen on the area. then you would need to ascertain the drop size. I would use a sheet of tissue paper, weigh it, then allow it to be hit by a single drop of average size, and then re-weigh. 1 gram will equal 1 milliliter, and thus you can work out how many drops by dividing your total water in your sample area. You may want to use a normal rain gauge in addition to this in order to get an accurate idea of when you achieve a 1 inch rainfall.

How many ounces are in 1 of rain?

You haven't put any units in against the '1' in your question, so do you mean 1 mm, or 1 inch or what? Anyway, rainfall is measured, maybe in inches, over the area on which it falls. So if you had a very local shower of 1 inch but it only covered 1 acre, the weight of rain would not be nearly so much as 1 inch on 20 acres.

Well, rain falling at the rate of an inch (2.54 cms) per hour one acre of land produces power equal to 100 horsepower automobile engine running at top speed!
