A 588 cm3 volume of moist sand weighs 1010 gm. Its dry weight is 918 gm and specific gravity of solids, G is 2.67. Assuming density of water as 1 gm/cm3, the void ratio is ______
-
- 0.21
- 0.51
- 0.71
- 0.91
Correct Option: C
0.71
| γd = | |
| 1 + e |
| γd = | |
| V |
| = | = 1.561g/cm³ | |
| 588 |
G = 2.67, γω = 1, e = ?
| 1.561 = | ||
| 1 + e |
| 1 + e = | = 1.71 | |
| 1.561 |
∴ e = 0.71
