2 - The effective friction angle of a sand is 36\%. A sample of this sand was subjected to a direct shear test in which a normal stress of 100kPa was applied. Considering that the sample had the dimensions of 50 mm×50 mm×30 mm (widthxlengthxheight): a) Calculate the shear force at the failure plane. [2,0] b) Draw the Mohr circle for the test performed. [1,0]
