Question 1
Given a contaminant with a retardation factor of 3 and an initial concentration of 5 mg/l, compute the concentration decline over 48 hours assuming a diffusion coefficient of 0.1 cm²/s.
💡 Hint: Make sure to account for the retardation factor in your calculations.
Question 2
Describe the consequences of not properly defining boundary conditions in sediment transport modeling.
💡 Hint: Think about how real-world scenarios could be misrepresented.
