Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given a saturated clay soil with a hydraulic conductivity of 0.005 cm/s, compute the time required for 10 m³ of water to drain out through a cross-sectional area of 20 m².

💡 Hint: Convert cm/s to m/s where necessary.

Question 2

A farmer applies water to a field knowing its sandy soil has a hydraulic conductivity of 0.2 m/day. How many days will it take for water to travel 1 meter down into the soil?

💡 Hint: Think about speed and the distance you want to measure.
