Problem 10: An earthen dam will be built over a pervious layer. The longitudinal length of the pervious layer below the dam is 750ft, and it is 10ft thick with a coefficient of permeability of 0.03inmin. The level of water at the downstream is maintained at 2,998ft. The flow of water in gallon/day (gpd) in the pervious material is most nearly:
Pervious material =10ft thick 1ft3=7.48 gallon
K=0.03inmin
A)1,900gpd
B)6,300gpd
C)8,900gpd
D)14,200gpd
