An infiltration capacity curve prepared for a catchment indicated an initial infiltration capacity of 2.5 cm/hr and attains a constant value of 0.5 cm/hr in 10hrs of rainfall with a Horton's constant k=6/day. Determine the following: 1. Draw the infiltration curve and provide labels 2. Calculate the infiltration rate at 3.5hrs. 3. Calculate the infiltration loss at t1=3.5 hrs t2=5.0hrs.

1. Draw the infiltration curve and provide labels
2. Calculate the infiltration rate at 3.5hrs.
3. Calculate the infiltration loss at t1=3.5 hrs t2=5.0hrs.
4. Draw the infiltration curve and shade the area bounded by the infiltration loss. Refer from the previous question
5. Calculate the infiltration loss at t1=3.5hrs t2=5.0hrs (exponential function) and t1=4.5hrs t2=7.30hrs (linear function)
6. Draw the infiltration curve and shade the area bounded by the infiltration loss. Refer from the previous question
