For a homogeneous earth dam 50 m high having 2 m free broad, a flow net was constructed and the results were : Number of potential drops = 2.4 Number of flow channels = 0.4. If coefficiency of permeability of the dam mateiral is 3 x 10^-3 cm³/sec, the discharge per metre length of dam, is

12 x 10^-5 m³/sec

24 x 10^-3 m³/sec

6 x 10^-5 m³/sec

24 x 10^-5 m³/sec
