a) Calculate how long until the ponding will occur if the rain fall intensity is 1.5 cm/hr

During the first 0.156 hour of the storm 0.331cm of infiltration occur (according to

This is the failure of green ampt theory sometime
PROBLEM:This shows the limitation of the green ampt model. Its assume continou
Only the resistance of the soil is considered
Thus:The green ampt model is most accurate for heavy storm, where ponding occur
