Course: Soil mechanics
Theme: Fellenius Method
There is a soil with the following characteristics: cohesion of 0.4
kg / cm2, friction angle 33 ° and dry density of 1.7 gr / cm3 and
when saturated, effective cohesion of 0.2 kg / cm2, effective
friction angle of 24 °. and a saturated density of 2.2 gr / cm3.
The slope under evaluation has a 38 ° inclination, the rocky layer
is 11 meters away, finding the stability of the slope in a dry and
saturated condition, in addition to evaluating the critical
height.

A 30-kg uniform circular plate of radius r is supported by a ball-and-socket joint at point A and is at rest in the vertical xy plane when a bullet with a mass of 15g is fired with the velocity Vo = (-210m/s)k and hits the plate at point C. Knowing that r = 400 mm and h = 700 mm, determine (a) the angular velocity of the plate immediately after the bullet becomes embedded (b) the impulsive reaction at point A, assuming that the bullet becomes embedded in 1.1 ms
