Transcribed Image Text:The initial infiltration capacity (fo) of a watershed is estimated as 1.3 in./hr, and the time constant is taken to be 0.4 hr -1. The final infiltration capacity (fc) is 0.2 in./hr. Use Horton's equation to find the infiltration capacity, ƒ [in/hr], at t=30 min and enter it in the answer section.
Expert Solution
Check Mark
Step 1: Introduction and given data.

Initial infiltration curve, fo = 1.3 in/hr

Final infiltration curve, ff = 0.2 in/hr

Time constant, k = 0.4 hr-1

Using Horton's equation determine the infiltration capacity at t = 30min.
