Volume of Water Retained given Specific Retention Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Volume of Water Retained = (Total Volume*Specific Retention Percentage)/100
W_r = (V*%S_r)/100
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Volume of Water Retained - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - The Volume of Water Retained refers to the amount of water that remains in a material (such as soil or rock) after gravitational drainage has occurred.
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.
Specific Retention Percentage - The Specific Retention Percentage (in %) refers to how much water remains in the rock after it is drained by gravity.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Total Volume: 20 Cubic Meter --> 20 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Specific Retention Percentage: 10 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

W_r = (V*%S_r)/100 --> (20*10)/100

Evaluating ... ...

W_r = 2

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

2 Cubic Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

2 Cubic Meter <-- Volume of Water Retained

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
