Submerged Unit Weight of Soil Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Submerged Unit Weight in KN per Cubic Meter = Submerged Weight of Soil/Total Volume in Soil Mechanics
y_S = W_su/V
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Submerged Unit Weight in KN per Cubic Meter - (Measured in Newton per Cubic Meter) - Submerged Unit Weight in KN per Cubic Meter is the unit weight of a weight of soil as observed under water in a saturated condition of course.
Submerged Weight of Soil - (Measured in Newton) - Submerged Weight of Soil is the mass of soil in partial submerged condition.
Total Volume in Soil Mechanics - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Total Volume in Soil Mechanics is defined as the total capacity.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Submerged Weight of Soil: 11.8 Kilonewton --> 11800 Newton (Check conversion here)
Total Volume in Soil Mechanics: 12.254 Cubic Meter --> 12.254 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

y_S = W_su/V --> 11800/12.254

Evaluating ... ...

y_S = 962.950873184266

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

962.950873184266 Newton per Cubic Meter -->0.962950873184266 Kilonewton per Cubic Meter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

0.962950873184266 ≈ 0.962951 Kilonewton per Cubic Meter <-- Submerged Unit Weight in KN per Cubic Meter
