engineering recuitment GATE CE 2023-24 Test Series Soil Mechanics and Foundation Engineering Permeability
In a falling head permeameter test, the initial head (t=0) is 40 cm. the head drops by 5 cm in 10 minutes. The sample is 6 cm in height and 50 cm2 in cross-sectional area and takes the area of the standpipe equal to 0.5 cm2. Initially, the soil sample has a particle diameter of 2mm and water is flowing through the soil sample with a dynamic viscosity of 10-3 pa-s. Now the soil particles are replaced with a particle diameter of 4 mm and oil is passed through this sample with a dynamic viscosity of 10-5 pa-s. Calculate the permeability of soil after replacing soil particles and water with oil in __ x 10-5 m/s
