Direction: Water is following through the permeability apparatus as shown in the figure. The coefficient of permeability of the soil is k m/s and the porosity of the soil sample is 0.50.
-
What are discharge velocity and seepage velocity through the soil sample?
-
- k, 2k
- 2/3k, 4/3k
- 2k, k
- 4/3k, 2/3k
Correct Option: A
Discharge velocity, v = ki = k m/s (i = 1)
seepage velocity,
| = | = | = 2 km/s | ||
| η | 0.5 |
