For a soil, cohesion is 15 kN/sq. M, unit weight is 20 kN/cu. M and the factor of safety is 1.5 along with stability number of 0.05. The safe maximum height of slope is *

10 m

Explanation:

The Soil Cohesion is the force that holds together molecules or like particles within a soil.

The unit weight of a soil mass is the ratio of the total weight of soil to the total volume of soil.

The stability number (Sn) is given by the formula:

Given that:

Cohesion = C = 15 kN/m², Factor of safety = FOS = 1.5, unit weight = γ = 20 kN/m³, H = maximum height, Sn = 0.05. Hence:

the equation above shows how temperature f, measured in degrees fahrenheit, relates to a temperature c, measured in degrees celsius. based on the equation, which of the following must be true?
