Explanation:
Percolation rate of water in soil
Percolation is the property of absorption of water by soil.
If we pour a bottle of water on the floor and another bottle of water in the soil, the water on the floor will flow down but water in the soil will be absorbed.
The percolation rate is the amount of water absorbed by any soil at any given time.
Formula for calculating percolation rate is,
Percolation rate (ml/min) = amount of water (ml) / percolation time (min).
For example, If 200 ml of water is percolated through the soil sample in 40 min. Calculate the rate of percolation.
Solution – Rate of percolation is = amount of water (ml)/ percolation time (min).
