Answer:

Gs = 2.647

e = 0.7986

Explanation:

We know that moist unit weight of soil is given as

\gamma_m \ or\ bulk\ density = \frac{(Gs+Se)\times \gamma_w}{(1+e)}

where,  \gamma_m = moist unit weight of the soil

Gs = specific gravity of the soil

S = degree of saturation

e = void ratio

\gamma_w = unit weight of water = 9.81 kN/m3

From data given we know that:

At 50% saturation,\gamma_m = 16.62 kN/m3

puttng all value to get Gs value;

16.62= \frac{(Gs+0.5*e)\timees 9.81}{(1+e)}

Gs - 1.194*e = 1.694 .........(1)

for saturaion 75%, unit weight = 17.71 KN/m3

17.71 = \frac{(Gs+0.75*e)\times 9.81}{(1+e)}

Gs - 1.055*e = 1.805 .........(2)

solving both  equations (1) and (2), we obtained;

Gs = 2.647

e = 0.7986

What are the characteristic features of stress corrosion cracks?
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer and Explanation:

The crack formation growth that takes place in an environment corrosive.

Stress corrosion cracks can be defined as the spontaneous failures of the metal alloy as a result of the combined action of corrosion and high tensile stress.

Some of the characteristic features of stress corrosion cracks are:

  • These occur at high temperatures.
  • Occurrence of failures in metals mechanically.
  • Occurrence of sudden and unexpected failures under tensile stress.
  • The rate of work hardening of the metal alloy is high.
  • Time
  • An environment that is specific for stress corrosion cracking.

Shows a closed tank holding air and oil to which is connected a U-tube mercury manometer and a pressure gage. Determine the read
damaskus [11]

Answer:

P_2-P_1=27209h

Explanation:

For pressure gage we can determine this by saying:

The closed tank with oil and air has a pressure of P₁ and the pressure of oil at a certain height in the U-tube on mercury is p₁gh₁. The pressure of mercury on the air in pressure gauge is p₂gh₂. The pressure of the gage is P₂.

P_1+p_1gh_1=p_2_gh_2+P_2

We want to work out P₁-P₂: Heights aren't given so we can solve it in terms of height: assuming h₁=h₂=h

P_1-P_2=p_1gh_1-p_2gh_2=(55)\cdot{32.2}h-845\cdot{32.2}h

P_2-P_1=27209h
