Answer:
the volume of water that will be required to bring these soils to the optimum moisture content is 1859 kL
Explanation:
Given that;
volume of cut = 25,100 m³
Volume of dry soil fill = 23,300 m³
Weight of the soil will be;
⇒ 93% × 18.3 kN/m³ × 23,300 m³
= 0.93 × 426390 kN 3
= 396,542.7 kN
Optimum moisture content = 12.9 %
Required amount of moisture = (12.9 - 8.3)% = 4.6 %
So,
Weight of water required = 4.6% × 396,542.7 = 18241 kN
Volume of water required = 18241 / 9.81 = 1859 m³
Volume of water required = 1859 kL
Therefore, the volume of water that will be required to bring these soils to the optimum moisture content is 1859 kL
Answer:
porosity = 0.07 or 7%
dry bulk density = 3.25g/cm3]
water content =
Explanation:
bulk density = dry Mass / volume of sample
dry mass = 0.490kg = 490g
volume = πr2h = 3.142 * 2 *2 *12 = 150.8cm3
density = 490/150.8 = 3.25g/cm3
porosity =
=
= 0.07 or 7%
water content =
= 7%
Explanation:
A schematic diagram is a picture that represents the components of a process, device, or other object using abstract, often standardized symbols and lines. ... Schematic diagrams do not include details that are not necessary for comprehending the information that the diagram was intended to convey.
Answer:
= -0.303 KW
Explanation:
This is the case of unsteady flow process because properties are changing with time.
From first law of thermodynamics for unsteady flow process

Given that tank is insulated so
and no mass is leaving so

Mass conservation 
is the initial and final mass in the system respectively.
Initially tank is evacuated so 
We know that for air
,

So now putting values

= -0.303 KW
