Question: Wrong answer not accepted An infinite natural slope with angle of slope 1 5 ( inclination measured from horizontal ) has a saturated unit weight

Wrong answer not accepted
An infinite natural slope with angle of slope 15(inclination measured from horizontal) has a saturated
unit weight of 18 kN/m^3 and an effective angle of internal friction, $ =35. Determine the factor of safety against failure of the slope (i) when the slope is completely dry or submerged but without seepage, (ii) when seepage occurs at a parallel to the surface of slope.
