Specific Yield given Total Volume Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Specific Yield Percentage = (Volume of water drained by gravity/Total Volume)*100
%S_y = (W_y/V)*100
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Specific Yield Percentage - Specific Yield Percentage (in %) tells how much water is available for Consumptive use.
Volume of water drained by gravity - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Volume of water drained by gravity is defined as the quantity of water that is drained by gravity.
Total Volume - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Total Volume is defined as the total capacity.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Volume of water drained by gravity: 10 Cubic Meter --> 10 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Total Volume: 20 Cubic Meter --> 20 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

%S_y = (W_y/V)*100 --> (10/20)*100

Evaluating ... ...

%S_y = 50

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

50 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

50 <-- Specific Yield Percentage

Volume Percent of Porosity Specific Yield and Specific Retention

Go Volume Percent of Porosity = Specific Yield Percentage+Specific Retention Percentage

Specific Retention given Porosity

Go Specific Retention Percentage = Volume Percent of Porosity-Specific Yield Percentage

Specific Yield given Porosity

Go Specific Yield Percentage = Volume Percent of Porosity-Specific Retention Percentage

Volume of Water Drained by Gravity given Specific Yield

Go Volume of water drained by gravity = (Specific Yield Percentage*Total Volume)/100

Specific Yield given Total Volume

Go Specific Yield Percentage = (Volume of water drained by gravity/Total Volume)*100

Total Volume given Specific Yield

Go Total Volume = (Volume of water drained by gravity/Specific Yield Percentage)*100

Volume of Water Retained given Specific Retention

Go Volume of Water retained = (Total Volume*Specific Retention Percentage)/100

Specific Retention given Total Volume

Go Specific Retention Percentage = (Volume of Water retained/Total Volume)*100

Total Volume given Specific Retention

Go Total Volume = (Volume of Water retained/Specific Retention Percentage)*100

Specific Yield given Total Volume Formula

Specific Yield Percentage = (Volume of water drained by gravity/Total Volume)*100
%S_y = (W_y/V)*100

What is Specific Yield?

Specific yield is the amount of water that is actually available for groundwater pumping, when sediments or rocks are drained due to lowering of the water table. Specific yield depends on the distribution of pores, their shape, and grain size.

How to Calculate Specific Yield given Total Volume?

Specific Yield given Total Volume calculator uses Specific Yield Percentage = (Volume of water drained by gravity/Total Volume)*100 to calculate the Specific Yield Percentage, The Specific Yield given Total Volume is defined as the amount of water that is actually available for groundwater pumping, when sediments or rocks are drained due to lowering of water table. Specific Yield Percentage is denoted by %S_y symbol.

How to calculate Specific Yield given Total Volume using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Specific Yield given Total Volume, enter Volume of water drained by gravity (W_y) & Total Volume (V) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Specific Yield given Total Volume calculation can be explained with given input values -> 50 = (10/20)*100.

FAQ

What is Specific Yield given Total Volume?
