Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
Consider a contaminated sediment with a Retardation Factor of 3. If a contaminant would normally travel at 6 cm/day through water, how fast does it move through the sediment?
💡 Hint: Apply the retardation method to calculate the effective speed.
A sediment study finds that at z = 0, the flux is calculated as 5 mg/m²/day. Discuss how is this relevant to environmental safety.
💡 Hint: Consider the implications of contaminant transfer to the environment.
