Assignment #4
Solve Problem 5-1 on p.82 of the text, or see at right:
Solve Problem 5-4 on p.82 of the text, or see at right (use the figure in Presentation #5):
Solve Problem 5-6 on p.82 of the text, or see at right:
Solve Problems 5-10 and 5-11 on p.82 of the text, or see below.
5-10. A reservoir with a 35,000-ft2 area is underlain by layers of stratified soils as depicted in Figure 5-23. Compute the water loss from the reservoir in 1 year. Assume that the pore pressure at the bottom sand layer is zero.
5-11. For the reservoir described in Problem 5-10, estimate the average coefficient of permeability in the horizontal direction.
5-1. Water flows through a sand filter as shown in Figure 5-20. The soil mass's cross-sectional area and length are 400in2 and 5.0ft, respectively. If Inflow the coefficient of permeability of the sand filter is 3.610-2cms, find the flow rate of water through the soil.
5-4. A falling-head permeability test was conducted on a silty clay sample (Figure 5-4). The diameter and length of the test specimen were 10.20 and 16.20cm, respectively. The cross-sectional area of the standpipe was 1.95cm2, and the water temperature was 20C. If it took 35min for the water in the standpipe to drop from a height of 100.0cm at the beginning of the test to 92.0cm at the end, determine the soil's coefficient of permeability.
5-6. A pump test was conducted on a test well drilled into a confined aquifer, with the results as shown in Figure 5-22. If water was pumped at a steady flow of 205galmin, determine the coefficient of permeability of the permeable soil in the aquifer.
