Answer:
Ponding will occur in 40mins
Explanation:
We say that the infiltration rate is the velocity or speed at which water enters into the soil. This often times is measured by the depth (in mm) of the water layer that can enter the soil in one hour. An infiltration rate of 15 mm/hour means that a water layer of 15 mm on the soil surface, will take one hour to infiltrate.

Answer:
•Estimated density = 39.685Pc/mi/en
•Level of service, LOS frequency = LOSC
Explanation:
We are given:
•Freeway current lane width,B = 12ft
• freeway current shoulder width,b = 6ft
• percentage of heavy vehicle, Ptb = 10℅
• peak hour factor, PHF = 0.9
Let's consider,
•Number of lanes N = 4
• flow of traffic V = 7500vph
• percentage of Rv = 0, therefore the freeflow speed in freeway FFS = 70mph
• cars equivalent for recreational purpose Er= 2
•cars to be used for trucks and busses Etb= 2.5
Let's first calculate for the heavy adjustment factor.
We have:
Substituting figures in the equation we have:
= 0.75
Let's now calculate equivalent flow rate of the car using:
= 2777.7 pc/h/en
Calculating for traffic density, we have:
D = 39.685 Pc/mi/en
Using the table for LOS criteria of basic frequency segment, the level of service LOS of frequency is LOSC
