The water content of a saturated soil and the specific gravity of soil solids were found to be 30% and 2.70, respectively. Assuming the unit weight of water to be 10 $$kN /m^3$$, the saturated unit weight ($$kN /m^3$$), and the void ratio of the soil are

The consumptive use of water for a crop during a particular stage of growth is 2.0mm / day. The maximum depth of available water is the root zone is 60mm. Irrigation is required when the amount of available water is 50% of the maximum available water in the root zone. Frequency of irrigation should be

The culturable command area for a distributary channel is 20,000 hectares. Wheat grown in the entire area and the intensity of irrigation is 50%. The kor period for wheat is 30 days and the kor water depth is 120mm. The outlet discharge for the distributary should be

Consider the following statements:

1. The compressive strength of concrete decreases with increase in water-cement ratio of the concrete mix.

2. Water is added to the concrete mix for hydration of cement and workability.

3. Creep and shrinkage of concrete are independent of the water-cement ratio in the concrete mix.

The true statements are
