Problem 3. A stream of 175 liters per second was diverted from the river and 105 liters per second was delivered to the field. An area of 2 hectares was irrigated in hours. The root-zone depth was 1.8 m. The runoff averaged 50 liters per second for 3 hours. The depth of water penetration varied linearly from 1.8 m at the head of the field to 1.2 m at the end of the field.
