For construction of an embankment, the soil is transported from a borrowed area using a truck which carries 5.5 m^3 of soil at a time, with the following details: For the Borrowed Pit: bulk unit weight= 16 KN/m^3 and moisture content = 6.7% ; For Truck (loose): bulk unit weight = 10.7 KN/m^3 , moisture content 5.2% ; For Field (compacted): bulk unit weight = 19.3 KN/m^3 , moisture content = 14% ... Determine the number of truck loads required to obtain 150m^3 of compacted earth fill and the volume of the borrowed pit.

What volume of naocl will be needed : If the plant uses sodium hypochlorite instead, what volume of NaOCl will be needed? Assume that the dry density of NaOCl is 1.2 kg/L and that 1 mg/L of dissolved NaOCl is equivalent to 1 mg/L of dissolved Cl2.

Derive an equation that would allow for direct calculation : A closed system of 0.123kg undergoes a frictionless, quasi-static process along the path PV=C from 100kpa to a final state where the volume is twice the initial volume. During the process 8140 N-m of work is done by the system. What is the final spec..

How long would you figure the soil will take to reach : An oil storage area, abandoned 10 years ago, had spilled oil on the ground and saturated the soil at a concentration of perhaps 400 mg/kg of soil. A fast food chain wants to build a restaurant there, and samples the soil for contaminants.
