[20 Points] A falling-head permeability test was performed on a soil sample 97-mm in diameter and
20-mm long. The standpipe had an inside diameter of 6.0mm. The water level in the bath surrounding
the sample was 120mm above the laboratory countertop and the water level in the standpipe fell from a height of 510mm to 261mm above the countertop in 46 hours and 35 minutes. Compute the
hydraulic conductivity of the soil sample in units of cm/sec
