You are working in a lab and are tasked with determining the percent plant available water for a particular soil sample. You take a field soil sample. The mass of your sample was 152g and it had 18.3% moisture by mass. Then, you place the soil sample in your pressure plate extractor and determine that the soil sample weighs 164.2g when the moisture potential is -33kPa and 130.7g at -1500kPa. What is the percent plant available moisture by mass of this soil sample? Please answer to one decimal place.

OMC-Proctor's Test A sample of dry sand has a volume of 1000 ml in its natural state. Its minimum volume when compacted is 750 ml. When gently poured into a measuring cylinder, its possible maximum volume is 1320 ml. what is the relative density?
As a result of sieve analysis and hydrometer analysis on a soil sample, gravel 40% and sand 18%. Liquid limit value of the soil 58% and plasticity index was determined as 32%. D60, D30 and D10 values according to grain distribution curve 2.4mm, 0.9mm and 0.2mm respectively. According to the findings obtained, the soil sample Make USCS classification.
1.4 A test for the relative density of soil in place was performed by digging a small hole in the soil. The volume of the hole was 400 ml and the moist weight of the excavated soil was 9 N. after oven drying, the weight was 7.8 N. Of the dried soil, 4N was poured into a vessel in a very loose state, and its volume was found to be 270 ml. The same weight of soil when vibrated and compacted had a volume of 200 ml. Determine the relative density.
