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:
Gs = 2.647
e = 0.7986
Explanation:
We know that moist unit weight of soil is given as
where, 
= moist unit weight of the soil
Gs = specific gravity of the soil
S = degree of saturation
e = void ratio
= unit weight of water = 9.81 kN/m3
From data given we know that:
At 50% saturation,
puttng all value to get Gs value;
Gs - 1.194*e = 1.694 .........(1)
for saturaion 75%, unit weight = 17.71 KN/m3
Gs - 1.055*e = 1.805 .........(2)
solving both equations (1) and (2), we obtained;
Gs = 2.647
e = 0.7986
Answer:
Explanation:
volume of 20.9 N
= 20.9 / 11.5 m³
= 1.8174 m³
In one hour 1.8174 m³ flows
in one second volume flowing = 1.8174 / 60 x 60
= 5 x 10⁻⁴ m³
Rate of volume flow = 5 x 10⁻⁴ m³ / s .
Drip irrigation
Drip irrigation is one of the most efficient types of irrigation systems. The efficiency of applied and lost water as well as meeting the crop water need ranges from 80% to 90%
