if 200ml of water is percolated through the soil sample in 40min. calculate the rate of percolation.
Answers
The rate of percolation is defined as the amount of percolated water per unit of time.
It measures the rate of movement of water through the soil.
Given,
Amount of water= 200 ml.
Percolation time= 40 min.
Rate of percolation= Amount of water(ml) / Percolation time(min)
= 200ml /40ml
= 5ml/min.
Hence the rate of percolation is 5ml/min.
