A permeameter of 8.2cm diameter contains a sample of soil of lemgth 35cm. It can be used either for constant head or falling head tests. The standpipe used for the latter has a diameter of 2.5cm. In the constant head test the loss of head was 116cm measured on a length of 25cm when the rate of flow was 2.73ml/s. If a falling head test were then made on the same soil, how kuch time in seconds would be taken for the head to fall from 150 to 100cm?
