Mathematics · Soil Mechanics
A dry soil sample has a void ratio of 0.4. Without any change in the void ratio, water is added to the sample so that its degree of saturation becomes 35%. Considering the unit weight of water as 10 kN/m3 and the specific gravity of soil solids as 2.65, the difference in the unit weight of the sample will be:
- 10.95 kN/m3
- 21.35 kN/m3
- 31.0 kN/m3✓
- 41.4 kN/m3
Correct answer
1.0 kN/m3
