8. According to Darcy's law for flow through porous media, the velocity is proportion to: a) effective stress b) hydraulic gradient 9. The hydraulic head that would produce a quick condition in a sand stratum of thickness 1.5 m, specific gravity 2.67 and voids ratio 0.67 is equal to: a) 1.Om b) 1.5 m 10. The direction of flow is determined by the difference in: e) cohesion d) total stress c) 2.0 m d) 3m a) pressure head b) elevation head c) effective stress d) total head.
