Can you provide explanation for this question?

Am getting different answer by substituting in the formula.

Slitcher's formula v = 400 * i * D^10/4.

Santhikrishna said:   9 years ago
Slichter formula v = K * s * D^2/m.

400 * 1/80 * 0.5^2/1 = 1.25.

Slichter's formula(V) =K'I(D10 power 2/u).
Where, V=Velocity of flow, K=Slichter Constant.
I=Slope of hydraulic gradient, D10= Patrice size, u= Viscosity of water.
Then, V=K'I(D10 Power 2/u) =Put the value=1.25 m/day.

V = K*I (D^2)/u.
K = 400.
I = 1/80.
D = 0.5.
U = 1.
D10 is only D don't multiply 10 with it.
Put the values u will get the answer.

By using Slitcher's formula:

Velocity, v = {400 * i * (D10)^2}/u (unit= m/day);

Where,
i = hydraulic gradient.
D10 = effective size of particle in mm.
u = dynamic viscosity.

Therefore,
v = {400 * (1/80) * 0.5^2}/1.
= 1.25 m/day.

V = (K'id10^2)/u
V = (400*1/80*0.5^2)/1 =1.25 m/day.
