Inclined Length along Slope given Weight of Soil Prism Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Inclined Length = Weight of Prism/(Unit Weight of Soil*Depth of Prism*cos((Angle of Inclination)))
b = W/(γ*z*cos((I)))
This formula uses 1 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)

Variables Used

Inclined Length - (Measured in Meter) - Inclined Length of prism is along the slope.
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.
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.

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
Angle of Inclination: 80 Degree --> 1.3962634015952 Radian (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

b = W/(γ*z*cos((I))) --> 100/(18*3*cos((1.3962634015952)))

Evaluating ... ...

b = 10.6643897835834

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

10.6643897835834 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

10.6643897835834 ≈ 10.66439 Meter <-- Inclined Length

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
