Depth of Water Stored in Root Zone in Filling Soil up to Field Capacity Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Depth of Root Zone in Meters = (The Dry Unit Weight of Soil)*(Root Zone Depth)*(The Field Capacity of Water)/Unit Weight of Water
d_w = (Γ_d)*(d)*(F)/Γ_w
This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Depth of Root Zone in Meters - (Measured in Meter) - Depth of root zone in meters is the depth within the soil profile that commodity crop (cc) roots can effectively extract water and nutrients for growth.
The Dry Unit Weight of Soil - (Measured in Kilonewton per Cubic Meter) - The Dry unit weight of soil when the dry weight is reckoned with reference to the total original volume V, it is called the dry unit weight.
Root Zone Depth - (Measured in Meter) - Root zone depth the depth within the soil profile that commodity crop (cc) roots can effectively extract water and nutrients for growth.
The Field Capacity of Water - The field capacity of water remaining in a soil after it has been thoroughly saturated and allowed to drain freely, usually for one to two days.
Unit Weight of Water - (Measured in Kilonewton per Cubic Meter) - Unit Weight of Water is a volume-specific quantity defined as the weight per unit volume of a material.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

The Dry Unit Weight of Soil: 13.73 Kilonewton per Cubic Meter --> 13.73 Kilonewton per Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Root Zone Depth: 60 Centimeter --> 0.6 Meter (Check conversion here)
The Field Capacity of Water: 0.3572 --> No Conversion Required
Unit Weight of Water: 9.807 Kilonewton per Cubic Meter --> 9.807 Kilonewton per Cubic Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

d_w = (Γ_d)*(d)*(F)/Γ_w --> (13.73)*(0.6)*(0.3572)/9.807

Evaluating ... ...

d_w = 0.300052370755583

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.300052370755583 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.300052370755583 ≈ 0.300052 Meter <-- Depth of Root Zone in Meters

(Calculation completed in 00.014 seconds)
