number that looks like this √21‚ √15‚ √17. A surd is a root that cannot be written exactly as a decimal or a fraction. They are irrational. Simplifying Surds A surd can be simplified by rewriting the number inside the root as a product of two other numbers‚ one of which is its largest square factor. The square root of this factor is then written outside of the root sign. Rules of Surds Surds are numbers left in "square root form" (or "cube root form" etc). Addition and subtraction of surds a√b

Abstract In this paper soil compaction is described in relation to soil physical factors‚ root growth‚ and nutrient uptake by crop plants; rice growth and yield. In compaction‚ soil solids are rearranged with compression of liquid and gaseous phases accompanied by volume change. Soil compaction affects water retention characteristics‚ water intake rates‚ and gaseous exchange. In compacted soil‚ bulk density‚ microvoids‚ thermal conductivity‚ and nutrient mobility increase and macrovoids‚
