Answer:
. Relationship between bulk unit weight, water content, specific gravity, and the void ratio is:
2. Relationship between the degree of saturation, water content, specific gravity, and the void ratio is:
s × e = w × G
3. Relationship between void ratio and porosity
Where, γ = Bulk unit weight, G = Specific gravity of soil solids, s = Degree of saturation, e = void ratio, γw = unit weight of water, n = porosity
Calculation:
Given, n = 0.4, G = 2.7, S = 0.5
∴
