Weight of Soil on Wedge given Mobilized Shear Resistance of Soil Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Weight of Body in Newtons = Mobilized Shear Resistance of Soil/((Distance between LOA and COR*Radial Distance)/Length of Slip Arc)
W = c_m/((x'*d_radial)/L^')
This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Weight of Body in Newtons - (Measured in Newton) - Weight of Body in Newtons is the force with which a body is pulled toward the earth.
Mobilized Shear Resistance of Soil - (Measured in Pascal) - Mobilized Shear Resistance of Soil is a result of friction and interlocking of particles, and possibly cementation or bonding at particle contacts.
Distance between LOA and COR - (Measured in Meter) - Distance between LOA and COR is the distance between the line of action and the line passing through the center which is the perpendicular distance from a point to a line in a geometric configuration.
Radial Distance - (Measured in Meter) - Radial Distance is defined as distance between whisker sensor's pivot point to whisker-object contact point.
Length of Slip Arc - (Measured in Meter) - Length of Slip Arc is the length of the arc formed by slip circle.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Mobilized Shear Resistance of Soil: 3.57 Pascal --> 3.57 Pascal No Conversion Required
Distance between LOA and COR: 1.25 Meter --> 1.25 Meter No Conversion Required
Radial Distance: 1.5 Meter --> 1.5 Meter No Conversion Required
Length of Slip Arc: 3.0001 Meter --> 3.0001 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

W = c_m/((x'*d_radial)/L^') --> 3.57/((1.25*1.5)/3.0001)

Evaluating ... ...

W = 5.7121904

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

5.7121904 Newton --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

5.7121904 ≈ 5.71219 Newton <-- Weight of Body in Newtons

Radial Distance from Center of Rotation given Length of Slip Arc

Go Radial Distance = (360*Length of Slip Arc)/(2*pi*Arc Angle*(180/pi))

Arc Angle given Length of Slip Arc

Go Arc Angle = (360*Length of Slip Arc)/(2*pi*Radial Distance)*(pi/180)

Moment of Resistance given Factor of Safety

Go Moment of Resistance with Factor of Safety = Factor of Safety*Driving Moment

Driving Moment given Factor of Safety

Go Driving Moment = Resisting Moment/Factor of Safety
