Question 1
You have two soil types: sand with a permeability of 0.1 cm/sec and clay with a permeability of 10^-8 cm/sec. If both are placed in an aquifer, calculate the effective flow rate assuming equal hydraulic gradient.
💡 Hint: Consider how permeability affects flow differences.
Question 2
You have a mixture of soil with 70% sand and 30% clay. Discuss how the overall permeability will compare to pure sand and pure clay.
💡 Hint: Think about how the combination of particles affects flow.
