A 5-hours storm produces a total of 3 mm rainfall as follows: t (hr) 0-1 1-2 2-3 3-4 4-5 i (mm/hr) 0.4 1.2 0.6 0.4 0.4 Using Horton's equation with k=1.1 hr', fe= 0.2 mm/hr., and fo = 0.9 mm/hr.: I. Find the infiltration rate at t=0, 1,2,3,4, and 5 hr. (0.9,0.43,0.28,0.23,0.21,0.20 mm/hr) II. Estimate the cumulative capacity over the 5 hours storm period. (1.63 mm) III. Using Microsoft Excel, plot in one graph: the hyetograph, and the infiltration curve IV. Estimate the time when the ponding begins. (1 hr)
