Answer:
a) 2622.903 N/m^3
b) 1.38233
c)4.878811765
Explanation:
Find the void ratio using the formula:
Here;
is specific gravity of soil solids
is unit weight of water = 998 kg/m^3
is the moisture content = 0.17
is the void ratio
is the unit weight of soil = 14.9KN/m^3
Saturation Ratio Formula:
S is saturation rate
Substitute Eq 2 into Eq 1
Specific gravity of soil solids
Saturated Unit Weight
Answer:
See explaination and attachment.
Explanation:
Iteration method is a repetitive method applied until the desired result is achieved.
Let the given equation be f(x) = 0 and the value of x to be determined. By using the Iteration method you can find the roots of the equation. To find the root of the equation first we have to write equation like below
x = pi(x)
Let x=x0 be an initial approximation of the required root α then the first approximation x1 is given by x1 = pi(x0).
Similarly for second, thrid and so on. approximation
x2 = pi(x1)
x3 = pi(x2)
x4 = pi(x3)
xn = pi(xn-1).
