Question # 1 (2 marks) An element of soil is subjected to a principal stresses of 15 kPa at a horizontal plane (the load is perpendicular to the horizontal plane) and another principal stress of 30 kPa at a vertical plane. Obtain the normal and shear stresses for a failure plane that has an inclination angle with respect to the horizontal axis of 35- degree.
