An unconfined compression test on a soil will allow the user to (pick all that apply): provide strength parameters for undrained (i.e. total stress) analyses in geotechnical design provide strength parameters for drained (i.e. effective stress) analyses in geotechnical design find the weakest plane of resistance in the soil (undrained) determine the friction angle of the soil determine the undrained shear strength of the soil | determine the effective cohesion of the soil

Give me right solution with short explanations. 

If you don't know the answer please leave it but don't give me wrong answer. 

Thank you 

An unconfined compression test on a soil will allow the user to (pick all that apply):
provide strength parameters for undrained (i.e. total stress) analyses in
geotechnical design
provide strength parameters for drained (i.e. effective stress) analyses in
geotechnical design
find the weakest plane of resistance in the soil (undrained)
determine the friction angle of the soil
| determine the undrained shear strength of the soil
| determine the effective cohesion of the soil
