Minimum Permeability given Coefficient of Permeability for Earth Dam Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Relative Permeability = (Coefficient of Permeability of Soil^2)/(Intrinsic Permeability)
μr = (k^2)/(Ko)
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Relative Permeability - (Measured in Henry per Meter) - Relative Permeability is the ratio of effective permeability of a particular fluid at a particular saturation to absolute permeability of that fluid at total saturation.
Coefficient of Permeability of Soil - (Measured in Meter per Second) - The Coefficient of Permeability of Soil describes how easily a liquid will move through the soil.
Intrinsic Permeability - (Measured in Square Meter) - Intrinsic Permeability or Specific Permeability is a measure of relative ease with which porous medium can transmit fluid under potential gradient and is property of medium alone.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Coefficient of Permeability of Soil: 10 Centimeter per Second --> 0.1 Meter per Second (Check conversion here)
Intrinsic Permeability: 0.00987 Square Meter --> 0.00987 Square Meter No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
μr = (k^2)/(Ko) --> (0.1^2)/(0.00987)
Evaluating ... ...
μr = 1.01317122593718
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
1.01317122593718 Henry per Meter --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
1.01317122593718 1.013171 Henry per Meter <-- Relative Permeability
