A dry soil sample has the total mass (kg) shown in the table below. Use the data provided to complete the MVR table and determine the engineering parameters listed below. Write all answers for the mass/volume table to three decimal places and write all the answers for the engineering parameters (w, n, PT.PD. YT.& YD) as real numbers only (i.e. no %) to two decimal places. Be consistent with the units provided but do not include the units in your answer. VOLUME Va = Blank 1 m³ Vw = Blank 2 m³ Vs = Blank 4 m³ VT = Blank 6 m³ void ratio = 0.45 water content = Blank 7 porosity = Blank 8 Total density (kg/m3) = Blank 9 Dry density (kg/m3) = Blank 10 Total unit weight (kN/m3) = Blank 11 Dry unit weight (kN/m3) = Blank 12 AIR WATER p=1000 kg/m³ SOLIDS R.D. = 2.70 MASS Ma = 0 kg Mw = Blank 3 kg Ms = Blank 5 kg MT= 452.650 kg

Sediment transport

Sediment transport or Soil transport is the movement of solid particles, usually due to the combination of gravitational forces acting on the sediment, and the movement of the liquid at which the sediment enters. Soil erosion occurs in natural systems where the particles are sandstones (sand, rocks), mud, or clay; the liquid is air, water, or ice; and the gravitational force that works to move particles to the landing surface. Sediment transportation or soil migration due to the movement of liquids occurs in rivers, lakes, lakes, oceans, and other bodies of water as a result of currents and waves. Transportation is also caused by glaciers as they flow, and to places on earth under the influence of wind. Soil erosion due to gravity alone is possible in most sloping areas, including hills, scarves, cliffs, and the continental shelf — the continental boundary of the slope.
