Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A plot of land has different soil types: sandy, loamy, and clay. Discuss how you would design an irrigation system taking infiltration rates into account.

💡 Hint: Consider how different soils retain and absorb water.

Question 2

Using Horton’s equation, predict the infiltration rate at time t if f_c = 10 mm/hr, f_0 = 30 mm/hr, and k = 0.1. Discuss its implications for a rainy season.

💡 Hint: Use the equation f(t) = f_c + (f_0 - f_c)e^(-kt).
