A catchment area 5000 km2. In one day, the depth of precipitation is 55mm, Evapotranspiration is 0.8 mm/day and the increase in the water in the catchment is 0.3*109 m3/day and the infiltration rate in this day is 0. 3*109 m3/day. It is required to calculate: (a) Volume of Runoff (b) Average discharge in the river (c) Coefficient of Runoff and what is the type of soil approximately.
