Question 1

Given that a tank is being filled through two inlets with inflows of 0.1 L/sec each, and an outlet of 0.05 L/sec, find the rate of change in height as a function of time assuming a cylindrical tank with a diameter of 1 meter.

💡 Hint: Utilize the formula for volume and understand the relationship to height.

Question 2

Calculate the percolation rate of water in a soil matrix when given a hydraulic conductivity of 0.1 m/s and a storage change of 5 m³.

💡 Hint: Think about how hydraulic conductivity interacts with both storage and movement of water.
