The dry unit weight of a soil sample is 14.8 kN/m3.
Given that G_s = 2.72 and w = 17%, determine:
(a) Void ratio
(b) Moist unit weight
(c) Degree of saturation
(d) Unit weight when the sample is fully saturated
See complete solving at attachment
Answer:
a) 2.452
b) 1.256
Explanation:
Stress due to dead weight. = 14 Ksi
Stress due to fully loaded tractor-trailer = 45Ksi
ultimate tensile strength of beam = 76 Ksi
yield strength = 50 Ksi
endurance limit = 38 Ksi
Determine the safety factor for an infinite fatigue life
a) If mean stress on fatigue strength is ignored
β = ( 45 - 14 ) / 2
= 15.5 Ksi
hence FOS ( factor of safety ) = endurance limit / β
= 38 / 15.5 = 2.452
b) When mean stress on fatigue strength is considered
β2 = 45 + 14 / 2
= 29.5 Ksi
Ratio = β / β2 = 15.5 / 29.5 = 0.5254
Next step: applying Goodman method
Sa = [ ( 0.5254 * 38 *76 ) / ( 0.5254*76 + 38 ) ]
= 19.47 Ksi
hence the FOS ( factor of safety ) = Sa / β
= 19.47 / 15.5 = 1.256
Answer: The movement of tectonic plates
Explanation:
Tectonic plates are the part of the earth's crust that both the ocean and land rest on. These plates are constantly moving as a result of currents in the mantle.
These movements cause stress on the surface which has the effect of fracturing rocks and thereby creating/ forming faults in the earth's crust. Sometimes faults form when these plates move away from each other and sometimes they are formed when they push into each other.
Answer:
Q = 62 ( since we are instructed not to include the units in the answer)
Explanation:
Given that:



Q = ???
Now the gas expands at constant pressure until its volume doubles
i.e if 
Using Charles Law; since pressure is constant




mass of He =number of moles of He × molecular weight of He
mass of He = 3 kg × 4
mass of He = 12 kg
mass of Ar =number of moles of Ar × molecular weight of Ar
mass of He = 7 kg × 40
mass of He = 280 kg
Now; the amount of Heat Q transferred = 
From gas table

∴ Q = 
Q = 
Q = 62 MJ
Q = 62 ( since we are instructed not to include the units in the answer)
