STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Minor Principal Stress in Soil: 0.0961 Megapascal --> 96100 Pascal (Check conversion here)
Angle of Inclination to Horizontal in Soil: 64 Degree --> 1.11701072127616 Radian (Check conversion here)
Cohesion of Soil: 5 Kilopascal --> 5000 Pascal (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

σ_major = σ_min*(tan((i*180)/pi))^2+(2*C_s*tan((i*180)/pi)) --> 96100*(tan((1.11701072127616*180)/pi))^2+(2*5000*tan((1.11701072127616*180)/pi))

Evaluating ... ...

σ_major = 553224.858882345

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

553224.858882345 Pascal -->0.553224858882346 Megapascal (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

0.553224858882346 ≈ 0.553225 Megapascal <-- Major Principal Stress in Soil

What is Normal Stress?

A normal stress is a stress that occurs when a member is loaded by an axial force. The value of the normal force for any prismatic section is simply the force divided by the cross sectional area. A normal stress will occur when a member is placed in tension or compression.
