The soil sample (sample 1) in an area will be tested for the
amount of infiltration using a double ring infiltrometer. The
results of these experiments produce the following data:
Based on this data you are asked to:
a. Determining the best parameters for soil sample 1 using the
Philips equation
b. If it is known that there is a soil sample 2 with an
infiltration rate of 4.46 mm/hour0.5 and a hydraulic
conductivity of 2.05 mm/hour, make a graph showing the comparison
between the infiltration velocity in soil sample 1 and soil sample
2
Based on the comparison results, in your opinion, what are the
characteristics of the soil in the two samples?
