For a falling-head permeability test, the following are given:

● Length of the soil specimen = 15 in.

● Area of the soil specimen = 3 in.2

● Area of the standpipe = 0.15 in.2

● Head difference at time t = 0 is 25 in.

● Head difference at time t = 8 min is 12 in.

a. Determine the hydraulic conductivity of the soil (in./min).

b. What was the head difference at time t = 4 min?
