Total Mass of Soil Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Total Mass of Sand in Soil Mechanics = (Water Content of Soil from Pycnometer*Weight of Solids in Soil Mechanics/100)+Weight of Solids in Soil Mechanics
Σf_i = (w_s*W_s/100)+W_s
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Total Mass of Sand in Soil Mechanics - (Measured in Kilogram) - Total Mass of Sand in Soil Mechanics is the sum of sand retained in each sieve.
Water Content of Soil from Pycnometer - Water Content of Soil from Pycnometer is the ratio of the weight of water to the weight of the solids in a given mass of soil.
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.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Water Content of Soil from Pycnometer: 8.3 --> No Conversion Required
Weight of Solids in Soil Mechanics: 0.602 Kilogram --> 0.602 Kilogram No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

Σf_i = (w_s*W_s/100)+W_s --> (8.3*0.602/100)+0.602

Evaluating ... ...

Σf_i = 0.651966

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.651966 Kilogram --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.651966 Kilogram <-- Total Mass of Sand in Soil Mechanics
