Total Volume of Soil given Dry Unit Weight of Soil Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Total Volume in Soil Mechanics = Weight of Solids in Soil Mechanics/Dry Density
V = W_s/ρ_d
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Total Volume in Soil Mechanics - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Total Volume in Soil Mechanics is defined as the total capacity.
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.
Dry Density - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - Dry Density is defined as the mass of soil particles per unit volume of soil when the soil is completely dry.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Weight of Solids in Soil Mechanics: 0.602 Kilogram --> 0.602 Kilogram No Conversion Required
Dry Density: 0.049 Kilogram per Cubic Meter --> 0.049 Kilogram per Cubic Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

V = W_s/ρ_d --> 0.602/0.049

Evaluating ... ...

V = 12.2857142857143

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

12.2857142857143 Cubic Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

12.2857142857143 ≈ 12.28571 Cubic Meter <-- Total Volume in Soil Mechanics
