    Question

    What will be the excess of water at the soil surface (mm), if the total precipitation is 150 mm, infiltration in soil is 5 cm and direct evaporation is 10 mm?

    A.

    65

    B.

    90

    C.

    100

    D.

    50

    Correct option is B

    Total precipitation = 150 mm = 15 cm
    Infiltration in soil = 5 cm
    Direct evaporation = 10 mm = 1 cm
    Rainfall excess = Total precipitation - All losses
    Rainfall excess = 15 - 5 - 1 = 9 cm
    Rainfall excess = 90 mm
