For a surcharge angle β, the passive earth pressure is _________

Question - For a surcharge angle β, the passive earth pressure is __________

Options:

A . \(p_p=γz \frac{\sqrt{cos^2 β-cos^2 φ}}{cosβ+\sqrt{cos^2 β-cos^2 φ}} \)

B . \(p_p=γz \frac{cosβ+\sqrt{cos^2 β-cos^2 φ}}{cosβ-\sqrt{cos^2 β-cos^2 φ}}\)

C . \(p_p=γz \frac{cosβ-\sqrt{cos^2 β-cos^2 φ}}{cosβ+\sqrt{cos^2 β-cos^2 φ}}\)

D . \(p_p=γzcosβ \frac{cosβ+\sqrt{cos^2 β-cos^2 φ}}{cosβ-\sqrt{cos^2 β-cos^2 φ}}\)

Answer: Option D
Answer: (d).\(p_p=γzcosβ \frac{cosβ+\sqrt{cos^2 β-cos^2 φ}}{cosβ-\sqrt{cos^2 β-cos^2 φ}}\)
