SITUATION 2 For a variable head permeability test, the following data were given: Length of specimen= 37.5 cm; · Area of specimen= 19.4 sq.cm; Coefficient of permeability= 0.002912 cm/sec. Determine the following: (a) What should be the area of the standpipe for the head to drop from 63.5 cm to 30.5 cm in 8 minutes? (b) if the viscosity of water is 0.0911 x10 -4 q-sec/sq.cm, find the absolute permeability of the soil. (c) If the soil is classified as a uniform sand, determine the effective size particle size e C= 1.0

A falling head permeability test was run on a soil sample 9.60 cm in diameter and 10 cm long. The head at the start was 70 cm. The coefficient of permeability of the soil was found to be 5 x 10-6 cm/s. The diameter of the standpipe was 1 cm. What is the rate of flow at the start of the test? Select the correct response: 6.08 cm/hr 11.73 cm/hr 15.83 cm3/hr 9.12 cm/hr
