In a one-dimensional flow setup consisting of two different soils, one (soil 1) from a portion of the length of the soil column and the other (soil 2) filling the rest of the tube, the following is true: 1 The total head h varies nonlinearly from one end to the other end of the soil column. 2 The total head h varies linearly within soil 1 and it varies linearly within soil 2, but the slope of the variation changes as you go from soil 1 to soil 2. At the interface between the two soils, the value of the total head h is the same both in soil 1 and soil 2. 3 The total head h varies linearly within soil 1 and it varies linearly within soil 2, but the slope of the variation changes as you go from soil 1 to soil 2. At the interface between the two soils, there is a discontinuity of the value of the total head h. 4 The total head h varies linearly from one end to the other end of the soil column.

Question
In a one-dimensional flow setup consisting of two different soils, one (soil 1) from a portion of the length of the soil column and the other (soil 2) filling the rest of the tube, the following is true:
1 The total head h varies nonlinearly from one end to the other end of the soil column.
2 The total head h varies linearly within soil 1 and it varies linearly within soil 2, but the slope of the variation changes as you go from soil 1 to soil 2. At the interface between the two soils, the value of the total head h is the same both in soil 1 and soil 2.
3 The total head h varies linearly within soil 1 and it varies linearly within soil 2, but the slope of the variation changes as you go from soil 1 to soil 2. At the interface between the two soils, there is a discontinuity of the value of the total head h.
4 The total head h varies linearly from one end to the other end of the soil column.
