A. directly proportional to time and inversely proportional to drainage path
B. directly proportional to time and inversely proportional to square of drainage path
C. directly proportional to drainage path and inversely proportional to time
D. directly proportional to square of drainage path and inversely proportional to time
Because Permeability is Higher in Dry Of OMC & Lower in Wet of OMC
Fine Grained Soil = lower permeability
Coarse Grained Soil = higher permeability
