The correct answer is "minute" because the question asks for the unit of time in which fifty million litres of water flow through the falls.

Explanation

Going over the falls is against the law because it is extremely dangerous and can result in serious injury or death. The force of the water and the height of the falls make it nearly impossible to survive such an attempt. Additionally, going over the falls can also cause harm to the natural environment and disrupt the ecosystem. Therefore, to ensure public safety and protect the environment, it is indeed against the law to go over the falls.

10. If you go over the falls and survive, you end up in prison.

Explanation

The statement suggests that if someone goes over the falls and survives, they will end up in prison. However, this is not necessarily true.

There may be other consequences or legal issues that could arise depending on the circumstances, but it is not a guarantee that one would end up in prison. Therefore, the correct answer is False.
