Volume of Water Retained in Total Volume Soil or Rock Sample Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Volume of water Retained = (Total Volume of Soil or Rock Sample*Specific Retention)/100
V_r = (V_t*%S_r)/100
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Volume of water Retained - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Volume of Water Retained in total volume of soil or rock sample is when the Soils can process and hold considerable amounts of water.
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.
Specific Retention - Specific Retention (in %) tells how much water remains in the rock after it is drained by gravity.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Total Volume of Soil or Rock Sample: 50 Cubic Meter --> 50 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Specific Retention: 10 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

V_r = (V_t*%S_r)/100 --> (50*10)/100

Evaluating ... ...

V_r = 5

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

5 Cubic Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

5 Cubic Meter <-- Volume of water Retained

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
