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 - The Specific Yield Percentage (in %) refers to how much water is available for consumptive use.
Volume of Water Drained by Gravity - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - The Volume of Water Drained by Gravity refers to the amount of water that can be released from a saturated material due to the force of gravity.
Total Volume - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - The Total Volume refers to the sum of the volumes of all compartments or sections of a fixture or object.

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

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 formula 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?
