Vertical Pressure given Direction of Resultant Force Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Vertical Pressure = tan(Theta)*Horizontal Pressure
dv = tan(θ)*dH
This formula uses 1 Functions, 3 Variables

Functions Used

tan - The tangent of an angle is a trigonometric ratio of the length of the side opposite an angle to the length of the side adjacent to an angle in a right triangle., tan(Angle)

Variables Used

Vertical Pressure - (Measured in Newton per Square Meter) - Vertical Pressure is the pressure applied in the vertical direction due to self weight of a member is called the vertical pressure.
Theta - (Measured in Radian) - Theta is an angle that can be defined as the figure formed by two rays meeting at a common endpoint.
Horizontal Pressure - (Measured in Newton per Square Meter) - horizontal pressure is the pressure applied in the horizontal direction due to backfill is called the horizontal pressure.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Theta: 30 Degree --> 0.5235987755982 Radian (Check conversion here)
Horizontal Pressure: 10.5 Newton per Square Meter --> 10.5 Newton per Square Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

dv = tan(θ)*dH --> tan(0.5235987755982)*10.5

Evaluating ... ...

dv = 6.06217782649107

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

6.06217782649107 Pascal -->6.06217782649107 Newton per Square Meter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

6.06217782649107 ≈ 6.062178 Newton per Square Meter <-- Vertical Pressure

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
