Undisturbed samples from a normally consolidated clay layer were collected during a subsoil exploration. drained triaxial tests showed that the effective friction angle was φ’ = 25°. the unconfined compressive strength, qu, of a similar specimen was found to be 133 kn/m2. find the pore pressure at failure for the unconfined compression test.

Nitrogen (n2) undergoes an internally reversible process from 6 bar, 247°c during which pν1.2 = constant. the initial volume is 0.1 m3 and the work for the process is 121.14 kj. assuming ideal gas behavior, and neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine heat transfer, in kj, and the entropy change, in kj/s. show the process on a t-s diagram.

Both speed and velocity measure how fast something is moving. however, since speed is not a it does not require a(n question 6 options: a) quantity , unit b) magnitude, unit c) scalar, direction d) vector, direction
