Irrigation and Drainage Engineering Assignment: How much water is added to the basin shown below, which is built on a sandy mixed soil. Note that the total drainage is s/L 160, the time required to distribute water to the irrigated area is min 25, the water requirement of the crop is mm 110, the water losses are mm 9, and how much time is required for the infiltration overflow.

A hydrometer test has the following result: Gs = 2.65, temperature of water = 26 C, and L = 10.4 cm at 45 minutes after the start of sedimentation (see Figure 2.25). What is the diameter D of the smallest-size particles that have settled beyond the zone of measurement at that time (that is, t = 45 min)?
