Soil Mechanics and Foundation Due to a rise in temperature, the viscosity and the unit weight of the percolating fluid are reduced to 60% and 90% respectively. If other things remain constant, the coefficient of permeability increases by 25% increases by 33.3% increases by 50% decreases by 33.3% increases by 25% increases by 33.3% increases by 50% decreases by 33.3% ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
