answer:
A) Group symbol = SW
B) Group name = well graded sand , fine to coarse sand
C) It is not a clean sand given that ≤ 50% particles are retained on No 200
Explanation:
<u>A) Classifying the soil according to USCS system</u>
( using 2nd image attached below )
<em>description of sand</em> :
The soil is a coarse sand since ≤ 50% particles are retained on No 200 sieve, also
The soil is a sand given that more than 50% particles passed from No 4 sieve
The soil can be a clean sand given that fines ≤ 12%
The soil can be said to be a well graded sand because the percentage of particles passing through decreases gradually over time
Group symbol as per the 2nd image attached below = SW
B) Group name = well graded sand , fine to coarse sand
C) It is not a clean sand given that ≤ 50% particles are retained on No 200
Answer:
0.024 m = 24.07 mm
Explanation:
1) Notation
= tensile stress = 200 Mpa
= plane strain fracture toughness= 55 Mpa
= length of a surface crack (Variable of interest)
2) Definition and Formulas
The Tensile strength is the ability of a material to withstand a pulling force. It is customarily measured in units (F/A), like the pressure. Is an important concept in engineering, especially in the fields of materials and structural engineering.
By definition we have the following formula for the tensile stress:
(1)
We are interested on the minimum length of a surface that will lead to a fracture, so we need to solve for
Multiplying both sides of equation (1) by
(2)
Sequaring both sides of equation (2):
(3)
Dividing both sides by we got:
(4)
Replacing the values into equation (4) we got:
3) Final solution
So the minimum length of a surface crack that will lead to fracture, would be 24.07 mm or more.
