Dry Density of Solids Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Dry Density of Solids = Weight of Solids in Soil Mechanics/Volume of Solids in Soil
ρ_dry = W_s/v_so
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Dry Density of Solids - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - Dry Density of Solids is the mass of the solid particles per unit volume of the soil when all the pore spaces are filled with air.
Weight of Solids in Soil Mechanics - (Measured in Kilogram) - Weight of Solids in Soil Mechanics means the actual weight of the solid particle present in the soil.
Volume of Solids in Soil - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Volume of Solids in Soil is the space captured by the solids in soil.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Weight of Solids in Soil Mechanics: 0.602 Kilogram --> 0.602 Kilogram No Conversion Required
Volume of Solids in Soil: 12.28 Cubic Meter --> 12.28 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

ρ_dry = W_s/v_so --> 0.602/12.28

Evaluating ... ...

ρ_dry = 0.0490228013029316

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.0490228013029316 Kilogram per Cubic Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.0490228013029316 ≈ 0.049023 Kilogram per Cubic Meter <-- Dry Density of Solids
