A 4 m long soil sample has a cross-sectional area 2.5 m2. If water flows throughthe soil sample and the fluid energy lost is 1750 N-m for every cubic meterflow of water, estimate Darcy's velocity and the coefficient of permeability.The time of flow for 1 m3 of water is 25 hours. Also determine the seepagevelocity if the void ratio of the sample is 0.57.

Need asap pls. Thank you.
For the soil specimen shown in figure ,calculate the soil permeability if rate of flow is 2 cc / min . Take area cross - section of soil specimen as 8 cm² .
Determine the volume of water flowing through the sample shown in the figure per hour. There are 3 different soil layers and each is 200mm in length and diameter is 150mm. A constant head of 470mm is maintained across the soil sample. The porosity for Soil I is 0.5 and the value of k is 5*10^-3 cm/s. The porosity for Soil II is 0.55 and the value of k is 4.2*10^-2 cm/s. The porosity for Soil III is 0.35 and the value of k is 3.69*10^-4 cm/s. The hydraulic conductivities are measured in the direction of the flow.
