A hydrometer analysis was completed on a fine grain soil having a Specific Gravity of 2.85. The prepared sample mass was 49.5 grams and does not need to be corrected as no coarse fraction was separated during sample preparation. Using the hydrometer, temperature and hydrometer correction readings listed in the table below, identify the appropriate variables and calculate the particle diameters and percent passings. Specific Gravity Correction Ka) Hydrometer Elasped Time (min) Hydrometer Reading, Hs (GL) Correction, He Particle Diameter, D (in mm, to 3 decimal) Correction Hydrometer Reading, R Percent Passing, P (%, no decimals) Temperature, Co Length, L (cm) K (GL) 4 31 22
