Submerged Unit Weight given Shear Stress Component Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Submerged Unit Weight = Shear Stress for Submerged Slopes/(Depth of Prism*cos((Angle of Inclination to Horizontal in Soil))*sin((Angle of Inclination to Horizontal in Soil)))
γ^' = 𝜏/(z*cos((i))*sin((i)))
This formula uses 2 Functions, 4 Variables

Functions Used

sin - Sine is a trigonometric function that describes the ratio of the length of the opposite side of a right triangle to the length of the hypotenuse., sin(Angle)
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

Submerged Unit Weight - (Measured in Newton per Cubic Meter) - Submerged Unit Weight is the unit weight of weight of soil as observed underwater in a saturated condition of course.
Shear Stress for Submerged Slopes - (Measured in Pascal) - Shear Stress for Submerged Slopes is the force per unit area parallel to the slope surface beneath water, causing deformation.
Depth of Prism - (Measured in Meter) - Depth of Prism is the length of prism along z direction.
Angle of Inclination to Horizontal in Soil - (Measured in Radian) - Angle of Inclination to Horizontal in Soil is defined as the angle measured from the horizontal surface of the wall or any object.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Shear Stress for Submerged Slopes: 5.9 Pascal --> 5.9 Pascal No Conversion Required
Depth of Prism: 3 Meter --> 3 Meter No Conversion Required
Angle of Inclination to Horizontal in Soil: 64 Degree --> 1.11701072127616 Radian (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

γ^' = 𝜏/(z*cos((i))*sin((i))) --> 5.9/(3*cos((1.11701072127616))*sin((1.11701072127616)))

Evaluating ... ...

γ^' = 4.9914716459505

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

4.9914716459505 Newton per Cubic Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

4.9914716459505 ≈ 4.991472 Newton per Cubic Meter <-- Submerged Unit Weight
