Lebron James noticed that the void ratio of a given soil is three times that of another soil and the effective size of particles of the given soil is one-half that of another soil. Lebron conducted series of test and find the average height of capillary rise of water in the given soil on a certain time is found to be 40.58 centimeters. He wants to know the corresponding height of capillary rise ( dm) of the second soil.
