2. During the course of the growth of the soybean, you measured the volumetrie water content of the top 30 cm of the soil beds using a hand-held moisture meter (like one shown in Figure 2) every three days. You did this so that you can calculate the exact amount of water you can add without any excess irigation. Thirty days after the start of the experiment, you used the moisture meter and it indicated that the current volumetric water content of the soil bed was 0.19 cm/em. At that point, what is the maximum amount of water (em) that can be applied to the upper 30 em of the soil without any excess irrigation?

Observation: I want to know what effect salt has on the growth of grass. So I measure out 3 equal-sized squares of grass out the back of the Green Building. The first square of lawn I water with 5 liters of pure water from a watering can every day. The second square of lawn I water with 5 liters of pure water with 2 grams of salt mixed in, every day. The third square of lawn I water with 5 liters of pure water with 4 grams of salt mixed in, every day. I measure the height of the grass after 14 days and note the following observations. The first square is green and 15 cm high. The second square is greeny-yellow and 6 cm high. The third square is yellowy-brown and looks dead and is only 2cm high. What could we infer about the effect salt has on the growth of grass?
