Answer:

The term Accuracy means that how close our result to the original result.

Suppose we do any experiment in laboratory and we calculate mass = 7 kg but answer is mass = 15 kg then our answer is not accurate.

And the term Precision means how likely we get result like this.

Suppose we do any experiment in laboratory and we calculate mass five times and each time we get mass = 7 kg then our answer is precised but not accurate.

The unit weight of a soil is 14.9kN/m3. The moisture content of the soil is17% when the degree of saturation is 60%. Determine:

Serggg [28]

Answer:

a) 2622.903 N/m^3

b) 1.38233

c)4.878811765

Explanation:

Find the void ratio using the formula:

$y = \frac{G_{s}*y_{w} + w*G_{s}*y_{w} }{1+e} ....... Eq1$

Here;

$G_{s}$ is specific gravity of soil solids

$y_{w}$ is unit weight of water = 998 kg/m^3

$w$ is the moisture content = 0.17

$e$ is the void ratio

$y$ is the unit weight of soil = 14.9KN/m^3

Saturation Ratio Formula:

$w*G_{s} = S*e ..... Eq2$

S is saturation rate

Substitute Eq 2 into Eq 1

$y = \frac{(\frac{S*e}{w}) * y_{w} + S*e*y_{w} }{1+e}$

$14900 = \frac{3522.352941*e + 598.8*e }{1+e} = \frac{4121.152941*e}{1+e}\\\\ e= 1.38233$

Specific gravity of soil solids

$G_{s} = \frac{S*e}{w} = \frac{0.6*1.38233}{0.17} = 4.878811765$

Saturated Unit Weight

$y_{s} = \frac{(G_{s} + e)*y_{w} }{1+e} \\=\frac{(4.878811765 + 1.38233)*998 }{1+1.38233}\\\\= 2622.902571 N/m^3$
