The eigenvalues of the matrix
are \( \lambda_1, \lambda_2, \lambda_3 \). The value of \( \lambda_1 \lambda_2 \lambda_3 ( \lambda_1 + \lambda_2 + \lambda_3 ) \) is:
Let \[ A = \begin{pmatrix} 1 & 0 & 1 \\ 0 & k & 0 \\ 3 & 0 & -1 \end{pmatrix}. \] If the eigenvalues of \( A \) are -2, 1, and 2, then the value of \( k \) is _.
(Answer in integer)
Two soils of permeabilities \( k_1 \) and \( k_2 \) are placed in a horizontal flow apparatus, as shown in the figure. For Soil 1, \( L_1 = 50 \, {cm} \), and \( k_1 = 0.055 \, {cm/s} \); for Soil 2, \( L_2 = 30 \, {cm} \), and \( k_2 = 0.035 \, {cm/s} \). The cross-sectional area of the horizontal pipe is 100 cm², and the head difference (\( \Delta h \)) is 150 cm. The discharge (in cm³/s) through the soils is ........ (rounded off to 2 decimal places).
The most suitable test for measuring the permeability of clayey soils in the laboratory is ___________.
