Explanation:
Salt Lake City, Utah is located in a warm desert like area where there are little to no bodies of water for evaporation. New York City however, is located right on the east coast next to an ocean which allows for water to evaporate and fall over New York more than in Utah. This is also why New York gets more snow in the winter. This is known as the lake effect.
Answer:
The Bulk density = 1.3 g/cm³
the porosity of the sample is 132 cm³
Explanation:
Given:
Volume of cylinder = 260 cm³
Mass of container and the soil = 403 g
Mass of the empty container = 65 g
Thus,
The mass of the soil is = 403 - 65 = 338 g
Now,
The Bulk density =
or
The Bulk density =
or
The Bulk density = 1.3 g/cm³
also,
average particle density for mineral soil is usually given as 2.65 g/cm³
i.e the air present in the given soil sample has reduced its density from 2.65 g/cm³ to 1.3 g/cm³
The mass of the whole sample = Volume × Density
= 260 × 2.65
= 689 gm
but,
The actual mass of the dry sample = 338 g
thus,
Mass of air in the sample = 689 - 338 = 351 g
Therefore,
the volume of 351 g soil =
=
= 132.45 cm³
so the porosity of the sample is 132 cm³
Surprisingly, there are 196 countries today! hope this helped
