A glass cylinder 5 cm internal diameter and with a screen at the bottom was
used as a falling head permeameter. The thickness of the sample was 10 cm.
With the water level in the tube at the start of the test as 50 cm above the tail
water, it dropped by 10 cm in one minute, the tail water level remaining
unchanged. Calculate the value of k in mm/s for the sample of the soil.
