In determination of moisture equivalent, centrifugal force used . . . . . . . . times of gravity.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
C
In the determination of moisture equivalent, the centrifugal force is used 1000 times of gravity.
Moisture equivalent is defined as the percentage of water that a soil can retain in opposition to a centrifugal force 1000 times that of gravity. It is measured by saturating a sample of soil 1 cm thick and subjecting it to a centrifugal force of 1000 times gravity for 3 min.
