Porous rock through which groundwater can move is called an aquifer. The volume V of water that, in time T. moves through a cross section of area A of the aquifer is given by `(V)/(t)=(KAH)/(L)`, Where H is the vertical height of the aquifer over the horizontal distance L. This relation is called Darcy's law. The quantity K is the hydraulic conductivity of the aquifer. What are the SI units of K?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the SI units of the hydraulic conductivity \( K \) in Darcy's law, we start with the equation given: \[ \frac{V}{T} = \frac{KAH}{L} \] Where: - \( V \) = volume of water (in cubic meters, \( m^3 \)) ...
