A constant-head hydraulic conductivity test was performed on a sand sample in the laboratory, as shown in the figure. A constant differential head Δh of −500mm was maintained for a duration Δt of 5 minutes, during which ΔV=1000cm3 of water has flown through the sample. The sand sample has a diameter d of 7.5cm and a length L of 26cm. Question 1 (2 points) ✓ Saved The hydraulic conductivity K of the sand is a) 0.01cm/s b) 0.04cm/s c) 0.08cm/s d) 0.15cm/s
