ible put a few cm of gravel inside the hole.Fill your hole with water and place a board over the hole as shown in this week's reading materials.Take a picture at this step. Measure the distance of the water from the board. Your first measurement will be when you first fill the hole. Your water should meet the board.Repeat your measurement every two minutes until you have five measurements.Each time you take a measurement subtract it from the previous measurement to see how far the water has dropped over that two minutes.Calculate the drop in minutes per inch.This week's reading materials show examples of how to do this calculation. Average your five drop measurements (minutes/inch).  If the result is between six minutes per inch and 60 minutes per inch, then the soil passes the test, and it should be capable of supporting a perc test.

Water falls without splashing at a rate of 0.250 L/s from a height of 2.60 m into a 0.750kg bucket on a scale. If the bucket is originally empty, what does the scale read innewtons 3.00 s after water starts to accumulate in it?
