The volume of a cube is found by multiplying length times width times height. If an object has a volume of 1.44 m?,
what is the volume in cubic centimeters? Remember to mul-
tiply each side by the conversion factor.

Use the profile illustrated for problem (1). assume that the layer of silty sand fill (sm) is placed over the entire site. estimate the thickness of the fill (h - in feet) that will cause the effective vertical stress at the center of the clay layer to increase by 517.5 pounds per square foot.
