Answer:
denisity = 52.33 g/c
Explanation:
Density:
We have that m = 785 and that v = 15 c.
d = 52.33
Answer:
part a : <em>The dry unit weight is 0.0616 </em><em />
part b : <em>The void ratio is 0.77</em>
part c : <em>Degree of Saturation is 0.43</em>
part d : <em>Additional water (in lb) needed to achieve 100% saturation in the soil sample is 0.72 lb</em>
Explanation:
Part a
Dry Unit Weight
The dry unit weight is given as
Here
is the dry unit weight which is to be calculated
- γ is the bulk unit weight given as
- w is the moisture content in percentage, given as 12%
Substituting values
<em>The dry unit weight is 0.0616 </em><em />
Part b
Void Ratio
The void ratio is given as
Here
- e is the void ratio which is to be calculated
is the water unit weight which is 62.4
or 0.04
- G is the specific gravity which is given as 2.72
Substituting values
<em>The void ratio is 0.77</em>
Part c
Degree of Saturation
Degree of Saturation is given as
Here
- e is the void ratio which is calculated in part b
- G is the specific gravity which is given as 2.72
- w is the moisture content in percentage, given as 12% or 0.12 in fraction
Substituting values
<em>Degree of Saturation is 0.43</em>
Part d
Additional Water needed
For this firstly the zero air unit weight with 100% Saturation is calculated and the value is further manipulated accordingly. Zero air unit weight is given as
Here
is the zero air unit weight which is to be calculated
- G is the specific gravity which is given as 2.72
- w is the moisture content in percentage, given as 12% or 0.12 in fraction
Now as the volume is known, the the overall weight is given as
As weight of initial bulk is already given as 4 lb so additional water required is 0.72 lb.
