Question
3. (Bonus question) In the experimental setup shown in Figure 3, water flows through soils
1 and 2 upward under constant head. Assume c-c as the datum.
(1) Find the total and pressure heads at c-c;
(2) If the head loss after flowing through Soil 2 is 30% of the total head difference,
determine the total and pressure heads at b-b;
(3) Given the coefficient of permeability of Soil 2 as 0.05 cm/sec, determine the rate of
discharge;
(4) Calculate the coefficient of permeability of Soil 1.
