Civil, Rquired an right answer In a furrow irrigation system, the length of the furrow is 200 metres, the advance time is 240 minutes, and the advance equation is x = p * t_r r, where "p" and "r" are 8 and 0.7, respectively. The separations of the chosen stations from the furrow's starting are 40, 80, 120, 160, and 200 metres. (Using t as the minute and Z as the millimetre) Z = 5t 0.56 is the integrated infiltration equation. Establish the possibility for infiltration and the depth of water in the soil at each station. Determine deep percolation and runoff if the width of the furrow is 0.8 metres, the input discharge into the furrow is 1.5 litres per second, and the root depth is 90 millimetres.
