2. onstant inedu LOOIS 3. scale accurate to 0.01g Coarse-grained soil PROCEDURE: To measuring cylinder 1. Identify the constant head at the source and record it. Be sure to measure from an appropriate datum and be consistent throughout the experiment. 2. Measure the total length of the sample (AL) and determine sample cross- sectional area (A) in cm², (Note: the sample is situated in a 2.5" inside diameter acrylic pipe). 3. Using a 500ml beaker and a stopwatch, collect a volume of water NOTE: choose any time interval that will allow a sufficient volume of water to collect in the 500 ml beaker. 4. Record water temperature and determine the mass of water collected using a scale accurate to 0.01g. 5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 at least 2 times to calculate an average flow rate.( Convert mass of water to volume of water using an appropriate value for the density of water and calculate the flow for each trail) 6. Using Darcy's Law calculate the hydraulic conductivity, k in cm/s Note: Darcy's Law: K = ΔΗχΑ 7. Correct and report k to at a temperature of 10 °C.
