Question

true or false? can The submerged density of soil is about one - half of the saturated density. ​

Answer 1

Answer:

true or false?........?

Answer 2

Answer:

False

Explanation:

• The density of a mass of soil as viewed under water in a saturated situation is known as submerged density or bouyant density.
• Saturated density refers to the bulk density of a soil mass when it is saturated.
• As a result, saturated density is defined as the ratio of a saturated sample's total soil mass to its total volume.
• Dirt that has been saturated weighs more than soil that has been submerged. Solid particles (sand, silt, and clay) and pore spaces between them are found in most soils. Depending on the water content of the soil, the pore spaces are frequently filled with air and water in varied quantities.
• All of the pore spaces in wet soil are filled with water, leaving no room for air. Because water weighs more than air, a unit of saturated soil weighs more than a unit of submerged soil that contains solids, air, and water.
