The seepage occurring through an earthen dam is represented by a flow net comprising of 10 equipotential drops and 14 flow channels. The coefficient of permeability of the soil is 3 mm/min and the head loss is 4 m. The rate of seepage through the earthen dam is cm³/s per m length of dam.
Q1/A reservoir has a capacity of 50 Mm³ and average annual inflow of 75 Mm³. Area of the catchment is 1000 km². Sediment yield and the specific weight of the sediments are estimated at 550 tons per km² and 1375 kg/m³ respectively. The trap efficiency may be approximated by Y=100 [1- 1 where Y is the trap efficiency in percent and X is /the capacity inflow ratio, using three increments, calculate how long will it take for the reservoir to become 60% filled with sediment? 3 65X+1

Question 39 For a given soil, the following are given: Gs = 2.63; moist unit weight = 17.15 kN/m3, and moisture content = 10.86%. Determine the weight of water, in kN, to be added per cubic meter of soil to reach 84% degree of saturation. Round off to three decimal places.
Data for field density by sand cone method: Weight of bottle + cone + sand before going to the field = 8990.5 g Weight of soil excavated from hole = 7550 g Weight of bottle + cone + sand after use = 2931 g Weight of sand required to fill the cone, Wc = 1578 g Dry unit weight of sand = 1.533 g/cm3 Moisture content = 6% 1- Calculate dry unit weight of compaction in the field.
An unconfined aquifer (porosity, n = 0.29) with a specific retention of 0.11 has an area of 130 miles². The water table dropped 5.88 ft during a recent drought. Compute the volume of water lost from the aquifer storage during the drought. Assume there was no appreciable recharge during the drought, and all other fluxes can be neglected.
