📦 Area of a Cube
4
A cube has 6 equal square faces.
If the side length is s, then:
🔹 Surface Area Formula
Surface Area=6s2Surface Area=6s2
because:
Each face area = s2s2
There are 6 faces
So, total area = 6×s26×s2
✅ Example
If side s=4s=4 cm:
Surface Area=6(42)Surface Area=6(42)=6(16)=6(16)=96 cm2=96 cm2

If the side length of the cube is s, then:
Volume=s3Volume=s3
🔹 Why?
A cube has:
Length = s
Width = s
Height = s
So,
V=s×s×s=s3V=s×s×s=s3

🧊 Given:
Iceberg floats with 1/7 of its volume above water.
That means:
17V=above water71V=above water
So submerged volume is:

Water
For floating bodies:
VsubV=ρiceρwaterVVsub=ρwaterρice67=SGice76=SGiceSGice=0.857SGice

🔹 Part 2: Portion Above Surface in Pure Water
We now use:

Using:
ρsea=1025 kg/m3ρsea=1025kg/m3
ρfresh=1000 kg/m3ρfresh=1000kg/m3

Now,
VsubV=878.41000VVsub=1000878.4=0.878=0.878
So volume above water:

surface}}
✅ Final Answers:
Specific gravity of ice relative to ocean water = 0.857
Portion above surface in pure water ≈ 12%

protrudes in water means
ChatGPT said:
🔹 “Protrudes in water” means:
👉 The part of an object that sticks out above the water surface.
In floating problems (like iceberg questions):
Submerged volume → part inside the water
Protruding volume → part above the water
📌 Example:
If a block floats and 20% protrudes in water, it means:
20% is above the surface
80% is below (submerged)
🧊 In iceberg problems:
If 1/7 protrudes:
1/7 is above water
6/7 is underwater
If you want, I can also explain the word immersed and how it is different
from protruding.

how to find m of m3 of sphere
ChatGPT said:
🌐 How to Find m3m3 (Cubic Meters) of a Sphere
To find the volume in cubic meters (m³) of a sphere, use the formula:
V=43πr3V=34πr3
Where:
rr = radius (in meters)
π≈3.1416π≈3.1416
🔹 Step-by-Step
1️⃣Make sure radius is in meters
If diameter is given:
r=d2r=2d
2️⃣Substitute into formula
V=43πr3V=34πr3
✅ Example
Find the volume of a sphere with radius 2 m.
V=43(3.1416)(23)V=34(3.1416)(23)V=43(3.1416)(8)V=34(3.1416)(8)V=33.51
m3V=33.51m3
📌 If Diameter is Given
If diameter = 6 m:
r=3mr=3m
Then solve the same way.

how to make it just m
ChatGPT said:
If you have m³ (cubic meters) and you want to make it just m (meters),
you need to take the cube root.
Because:
m3 means m×m×mm3meansm×m×m
So to go back to m, you use:
volume33volume
🔹 Example 1
If:
V=27 m3V=27m3
Take cube root:
273=3327=3
So:
3 m3m
🔹 Example 2 (Sphere Case)
If:
V=33.51 m3V=33.51m3
To find radius:
r=3V4π3r=34π3V
📌 Simple Rule
To go m → m³ → multiply 3 times
To go m³ → m → take cube root
If you want, tell me your actual number and I’ll solve it step-by-step.

plastic limit formula
ChatGPT said:
🌱 Plastic Limit (PL) Formula – Soil Mechanics
The Plastic Limit (PL) is the water content at which soil changes
from plastic state to semi-solid state.
🔹 Formula
PL=WwWs×100PL=WsWw×100
Where:
WwWw = weight of water
WsWs = weight of dry soil
PL = Plastic Limit (%)
🔹 Expanded Form (from lab measurements)
PL=(Wwet−Wdry)Wdry×100PL=Wdry(Wwet−Wdry)×100
Where:
WwetWwet = weight of wet soil
WdryWdry = weight of oven-dried soil
✅ Example
If:
Wet soil weight = 32 g
Dry soil weight = 25 g
PL=32−2525×100PL=2532−25×100PL=725×100PL=257
×100PL=28%PL=28%

You said:
: In a liquid limit test using cup apparatus, the following data were taken:
Wlues were observed. Weight of wet soil + container =21.19grams Weight of
dry soil + container =18.78grams Weight of the container =8.20 grams
Determine the following22. Plasticity index 23. Liquidity index if natural
water content is 38%. LL is 43.5
ChatGPT said:
Let’s solve it step-by-step.
🔹 Given:
Weight of wet soil + container = 21.19 g
Weight of dry soil + container = 18.78 g
Weight of container = 8.20 g
Liquid Limit (LL) = 43.5%
Natural water content (wₙ) = 38%
✅ Step 1: Compute Plastic Limit (PL)
1️⃣Weight of wet soil
Wwetsoil=21.19−8.20Wwetsoil=21.19−8.20=12.99 g=12.99 g
2️⃣Weight of dry soil
Wdrysoil=18.78−8.20Wdrysoil=18.78−8.20=10.58 g=10.58 g
3️⃣Weight of water
Ww=12.99−10.58Ww=12.99−10.58=2.41 g=2.41 g
4️⃣Plastic Limit (PL)
PL=WwWdry×100PL=WdryWw×100PL=2.4110.58×100PL=10.582.41
×100PL=22.78%PL=22.78%PL≈22.8%PL≈22.8%
✅ Step 2: Plasticity Index (PI)
PI=LL−PLPI=LL−PLPI=43.5−22.8PI=43.5−22.8PI=20.7%PI=20.7%
✅ Step 3: Liquidity Index (LI)
Formula:
LI=wn−PLPILI=PIwn−PLLI=38−22.820.7LI=20.738−22.8
LI=15.220.7LI=20.715.2LI=0.73LI=0.73
🎯 Final Answers:
17%
✅ Correct Values
PL ≈ 36.2%
PI = 43.5 − 36.2 = 7.3%
LI = 0.25
🎯 Why your first solution was wrong
Because:
The given weights were from liquid limit cup test
They are NOT plastic limit data
So you cannot compute PL from them
