Dry Unit Weight Given Unit Weight of Solids Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Dry Unit Weight = Unit Weight of Solids*Volume of Solids/Total Volume in Soil Mechanics
γdry = γsoilds*Vs/V
This formula uses 4 Variables
Variables Used
Dry Unit Weight - (Measured in Newton per Cubic Meter) - Dry Unit Weight of soil is the weight of soil solids per unit of total volume of soil mass.
Unit Weight of Solids - (Measured in Newton per Cubic Meter) - Unit Weight of Solids is the ratio of weight of solids to volume of solids.
Volume of Solids - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Volume of Solids is the space captured by the solids in soil.
Total Volume in Soil Mechanics - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Total Volume in Soil Mechanics is defined as the total capacity.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Unit Weight of Solids: 15 Kilonewton per Cubic Meter --> 15000 Newton per Cubic Meter (Check conversion here)
Volume of Solids: 5 Cubic Meter --> 5 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Total Volume in Soil Mechanics: 8.34 Cubic Meter --> 8.34 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
γdry = γsoilds*Vs/V --> 15000*5/8.34
Evaluating ... ...
γdry = 8992.80575539568
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
8992.80575539568 Newton per Cubic Meter -->8.99280575539568 Kilonewton per Cubic Meter (Check conversion here)
FINAL ANSWER
8.99280575539568 8.992806 Kilonewton per Cubic Meter <-- Dry Unit Weight
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
