Please solve problem 8.13 (the highlighted question).
The following figure shows a vertical retaining wall with a granular backfill: 100.0 50.0 40.0 30.0 20.0 10.0- 5.0- 4.0 3.0- 2.0- = +1 0.8 0.6 0.4 0.2 0.0 -0.2 -0.4 -0.6 -0.8 -0.9 1.0- 0 10 20 30 40 45 ' (deg) (a) Figure Caquot and Kerisel's solution for K 3 Let H = 4m, a = 17.5°, y = 17.5 kN/m³, ' = 35°, and 8' = 10°. For given values of ' and 8', R' = 0.53. Based on Caquot and Kerisel's solution, what would be the passive force per meter length of the wall? (Enter your answer to two significant figures.) Pp= kN/m
The dam presented below is 180 m long (in the direction perpendicular to the plane of thecross-section). For the water elevations given on the drawing:a) Construct the flow net (minimum number of equipotential lines should be 10),b) Calculate the rate of seepage for the entire dam,c) Find the total uplift force on the dam (ignore barriers), andd) Estimate the hydraulic gradient at points A, B, and D
