Rework Problem 1 if the initial infiltration capacity was 10 cm/hr, the ultimate capacity was 1.2 cm/hr, and a total of 33 cm of water infiltrated during the 10-hr interval.

Problem 1

The infiltration rate for excess rain on a small area was observed to be 4.5 in./hr at the beginning of rain, and it decreased exponentially toward an equilibrium of 0.5 in./hr. A total of 30 in. of water infiltrated during a 10-hr interval. Determine the value of k in Horton’s equation f = fc + (f0fc)ekt.
