Total volume of soil or rock samples Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Total Volume of Soil or Rock Sample = Volume of water Drained/Specific Yield
V_t = V_d/S_y
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Total Volume of Soil or Rock Sample - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Total Volume of Soil or Rock Sample is the combined volume of solids and pores which may contain volume of air or volume of water, or both.
Volume of water Drained - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Volume of Water Drained from total volume of soil or rock is the removal of excess water either from the ground surface or from the rootzone.
Specific Yield - Specific Yield tells how much water is available for Consumptive use.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Volume of water Drained: 10 Cubic Meter --> 10 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Specific Yield: 0.2 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

V_t = V_d/S_y --> 10/0.2

Evaluating ... ...

V_t = 50

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

50 Cubic Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

50 Cubic Meter <-- Total Volume of Soil or Rock Sample

(Calculation completed in 00.020 seconds)

Volume of water that drains from total volume soil or rock sample

Go Volume of water Drained = Specific Yield*Total Volume of Soil or Rock Sample

Total volume of soil or rock samples

Go Total Volume of Soil or Rock Sample = Volume of water Drained/Specific Yield

Specific Yield

Go Specific Yield = Volume of water Drained/Total Volume of Soil or Rock Sample

Total volume of soil or rock samples Formula

Total Volume of Soil or Rock Sample = Volume of water Drained/Specific Yield
V_t = V_d/S_y

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.

What is specific retention?

Specific retention is that volume fraction of water that is held back by adhesion and capillary forces, when an aquifer is drained.

How to Calculate Total volume of soil or rock samples?

Total volume of soil or rock samples calculator uses Total Volume of Soil or Rock Sample = Volume of water Drained/Specific Yield to calculate the Total Volume of Soil or Rock Sample, The Total volume of soil or rock samples when specific yield is given is defined as the ratio of Volume of water than drains from a total volume of Vd to that of Specific Yield. Total Volume of Soil or Rock Sample is denoted by V_t symbol.

How to calculate Total volume of soil or rock samples using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Total volume of soil or rock samples, enter Volume of water Drained (V_d) & Specific Yield (S_y) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Total volume of soil or rock samples calculation can be explained with given input values -> 50 = 10/0.2.

FAQ

What is Total volume of soil or rock samples?

The Total volume of soil or rock samples when specific yield is given is defined as the ratio of Volume of water than drains from a total volume of Vd to that of Specific Yield and is represented as V_t = V_d/S_y or Total Volume of Soil or Rock Sample = Volume of water Drained/Specific Yield. Volume of Water Drained from total volume of soil or rock is the removal of excess water either from the ground surface or from the rootzone & Specific Yield tells how much water is available for Consumptive use.
