In a basin irrigation system, infiltration equation is Z=6T0.5 (T as min and Z as
millimeter), discharge in width unit is 0.000286 cubic meters per second per meter,
available discharge for irrigation is 1.0188 m3/hr, there is no runoff, basin width is 6 
meters, requiremed effective storage in root depth is 10cms, and final infiltration 
after 4 hours (when water reach the end of basin) is 10 millimeters per hour. 
Determine length of basin in m, irrigation time in minutes, and average deep 
percolation in mm
