  2. Specific weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_weight

    The specific weight, also known as the unit weight (symbol γ, the Greek letter gamma), is a volume-specific quantity defined as the weight W divided by the volume V of a material: = / Equivalently, it may also be formulated as the product of density, ρ, and gravity acceleration, g: = Its unit of measurement in the International System of Units (SI) is newton per cubic metre (N/m 3), with ...

  3. Physical properties of soil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_properties_of_soil

    The specific heat of pure water is ~ 1 calorie per gram, the specific heat of dry soil is ~ 0.2 calories per gram, hence, the specific heat of wet soil is ~ 0.2 to 1 calories per gram (0.8 to 4.2 kJ per kilogram). [90] Also, a tremendous energy (~584 cal/g or 2442 kJ/kg at 25 °C) is required to evaporate water (known as the heat of ...

    kilogram per cubic decimetre (kg/dm 3) gram per cubic centimetre (g/cm 3) 1 g/cm 3 = 1000 kg/m 3; megagram (metric ton) per cubic metre (Mg/m 3) In US customary units density can be stated in: Avoirdupois ounce per cubic inch (1 g/cm 3 ≈ 0.578036672 oz/cu in) Avoirdupois ounce per fluid ounce (1 g/cm 3 ≈ 1.04317556 oz/US fl oz = 1.04317556 ...

  5. Bulk density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulk_density

    The bulk density of soil depends greatly on the mineral make up of soil and the degree of compaction. [3] The density of quartz is around 2.65 g/cm 3 but the (dry) bulk density of a mineral soil is normally about half that density, between 1.0 and 1.6 g/cm 3.

  6. Specific volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_volume

    The standard unit is the meter cubed per kilogram (m 3 /kg or m 3 ·kg −1). Sometimes specific volume is expressed in terms of the number of cubic centimeters occupied by one gram of a substance. In this case, the unit is the centimeter cubed per gram (cm 3 /g or cm 3 ·g −1). To convert m 3 /kg to cm 3 /g, multiply by 1000; conversely ...

  7. Soil moisture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_moisture

    A study of a single winter rye plant grown for four months in one cubic foot (0.0283 cubic meters) of loam soil showed that the plant developed 13,800,000 roots, a total of 620 km in length with 237 square meters in surface area; and 14 billion root hairs of 10,620 km total length and 400 square meters total area; for a total surface area of ...

  8. Soil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil

    CEC is the amount of exchangeable hydrogen cation (H +) that will combine with 100 grams dry weight of soil and whose measure is one milliequivalents per 100 grams of soil (1 meq/100 g). Hydrogen ions have a single charge and one-thousandth of a gram of hydrogen ions per 100 grams dry soil gives a measure of one milliequivalent of hydrogen ion.

  9. Water content - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_content

    Soil composition by Volume and Mass, by phase: air, water, void (pores filled with water or air), soil, and total.. Water content or moisture content is the quantity of water contained in a material, such as soil (called soil moisture), rock, ceramics, crops, or wood.
