1. There is an infinite slope located in Arequipa with an inclination of 34 ° and the rocky substrate is 17 meters deep. Soil in the dry state has the following characteristics: density = 1.8 g / cm3, cohesion = 0.65 kg / cm2, internal friction angle = 31 °; and in the submerged state: saturated density = 2.3 g / cm3, effective cohesion = 0.25 kg / cm2, effective internal friction angle = 27 °. a) Find the stability...
