A sample of coarse grained soil 50 mm in diameter and 150 mm long was tested in a constant-head apparatus. The soil sample was prepared at a void ratio of 1.5. The total head was kept constant at 300 mm and the amount of water collected in 4 sec was 50 cm³. The test was made at 22°C. a. Compute the coefficient of permeability in cm/s at the test temperature. b. Compute the coefficient of permeability in cm/s at 20°C. c. Compute the interstitial velocity.
