Yes, that is about normal on most single house systems.

Well, honey, 45,000 pounds is about 5,384 gallons of water. But let's be real, who's really measuring weight in gallons anyway? Next time, just stick to asking about things that actually belong in gallons, like milk or gasoline.
In terms of volume, 9 gallons is equivalent to 36 quarts. Therefore, 35 quarts is less than 9 gallons. This is because 1 gallon is equal to 4 quarts, so 9 gallons would be 36 quarts.
Bleach, bleach and more bleach You can't sterilize a well, you can only sterilize water that comes out of it. If the water is contaminated when it comes in, nothing you do to the well will affect the water itself, more contaminated water will enter the well.
No, it is not harmful - assuming your well water has been tested for human consumption.No, it is not harmful - assuming your well water has been tested for human consumption.
Well, darling, 7 gallons is actually equal to 56 pints. You see, there are 8 pints in a gallon, so when you do the math, 7 gallons x 8 pints/gallon = 56 pints. So, there you have it, they're the same amount, just dressed up in different units.
This really depends on where you are and a lot of other factors. A minimum acceptable flow rate for a family of 4 would be about 3 gallons per minute into the well. A "good" (good flow rate, we aren't taking about the quality of the water here, just the volume) well would produce 5 or more gallons per minute. According to my local well driller here in Western PA, a "gusher" is 20 gallons per minute coming into the well.
Open main valve for 1 minute while capturing water (think bucket), then measure water.
20 was the previous answer. In order to calculate the amount of water used, you would need to know what the gpm (gallons per minute) you have at where you are running the sprinklers. Some places are between 10 and 20 gallons of water per minute. Are you on city water? Your own well? Rural water sharing? They all play a part in the final answer.
Depends on the number of bathrooms, not the number of occupants.
It can vary a huge amount depending on the type and size of the sprinkler, from as little as 1/2 gallon per minute to well over 8 gallons per minute. A reasonable average for the kinds you might purchase in a large discount store would be about three to four gallons per minute.
Well, considering that you don't turn on the water while you're brushing, and only turn it on to fill your cup, and rinse your toothbrush, I would say probably 1-2 gallons wasted. Of course, this is only an estimate, and I can't back this up with statistics and such, but I'm sure this is somewhere close to a definite answer. :)
Gallons per minute is the amount of gallons used or moved or saved for every minute of time that passes. If you wanted to calculate how many gallons were pumped through a water fountain every minute, you would measure this and divide the gallons by the minutes and get your "gallons per minute".
One family, quarter acre lot: 10-12 gallons per minute at 50 pounds per square inch.
On average, a faucet can use about 1.5 to 2.2 gallons of water per minute when running. This can vary depending on the flow rate of the faucet and whether it is a standard faucet or a water-efficient model.
Filled to the top, this well would hold about 956 gallons of water.
one hundred gallons
Truman Lake in Missouri has about 11.32 million gallons of water in it. There are several types of fish in the lake as well.
