Angle of Inclination given Weight of Soil Prism Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Angle of Inclination = acos(Weight of Prism/(Unit Weight of Soil*Depth of Prism*Inclined Length))
I = acos(W/(γ*z*b))
This formula uses 2 Functions, 5 Variables

Functions Used

cos - Cosine of an angle is the ratio of the side adjacent to the angle to the hypotenuse of the triangle., cos(Angle)
acos - The inverse cosine function, is the inverse function of the cosine function. It is the function that takes a ratio as an input and returns the angle whose cosine is equal to that ratio., acos(Number)

Variables Used

Angle of Inclination - (Measured in Radian) - Angle of Inclination is defined as the angle measured from the horizontal surface of the wall or any object.
Weight of Prism - (Measured in Kilogram) - Weight of Prism means the weight of soil prism.
Unit Weight of Soil - (Measured in Kilonewton per Cubic Meter) - Unit Weight of Soil mass is the ratio of the total weight of soil to the total volume of soil.
Depth of Prism - (Measured in Meter) - Depth of Prism is the length of prism along z direction.
Inclined Length - (Measured in Meter) - Inclined Length of prism is along the slope.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Weight of Prism: 100 Kilogram --> 100 Kilogram No Conversion Required
Unit Weight of Soil: 18 Kilonewton per Cubic Meter --> 18 Kilonewton per Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Depth of Prism: 3 Meter --> 3 Meter No Conversion Required
Inclined Length: 10 Meter --> 10 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

I = acos(W/(γ*z*b)) --> acos(100/(18*3*10))

Evaluating ... ...

I = 1.38453602321834

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.38453602321834 Radian -->79.3280707142528 Degree (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

79.3280707142528 ≈ 79.32807 Degree <-- Angle of Inclination
