Porosity Given Relative Density in Porosity Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Porosity Given Relative Density in Porosity?

FIRST Step Consider the formula

η = \frac{n max \cdot (1 - n min - R D) + R D \cdot n min}{1 - n min + R D \cdot n min - R D \cdot n max}

Next Step Substitute values of Variables

∴

η = \frac{0.92 \cdot (1 - 0.8 - 0.67) + 0.67 \cdot 0.8}{1 - 0.8 + 0.67 \cdot 0.8 - 0.67 \cdot 0.92}

Next Step Prepare to Evaluate

∴

η = \frac{0.92 \cdot (1 - 0.8 - 0.67) + 0.67 \cdot 0.8}{1 - 0.8 + 0.67 \cdot 0.8 - 0.67 \cdot 0.92}

Next Step Evaluate

∴

η = 0.866220735785953

LAST Step Rounding Answer

∴

η = 0.8662
