A saturated soil sample has a dry unit weight of 18000 N/m3 and specific gravity of 2.65 if the unit weight of water is 9810 N/m3, determine the water content of the soil sample?
ANSWER = [B] 0.17
Explain:- Correct answer for the question A saturated soil sample has a dry unit weight of 18000 N/m3 and specific gravity 2.65 if the unit weight of water is 9810 N/m3, determine the water content of the soil sample is [B] 0.17
Detailed Explanation for Solution
Dry unit weight (É£d) = 18000 N/m3 = 18 kN/m3
For water Content
É£d = GÉ£w/1+wG
