The correct answer is (a) Equivalent Moisture

To explain: Equivalent moisture is similar to field capacity, in such a way that field capacity water is retained by saturated soil after gravity whereas equivalent moisture is retained by saturated soil after applying centrifugal force 1000 times more than the gravity and centrifuged for 30 minutes.
