Please solve. Thank youNOTE: For any required additional data (i.e., table/figure) please refer to the textbook (Das, B. M.<br>PRINCIPLES OF GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING 9TH ED.)<br>Two identical specimens, 4 cm in diameter and 8 cm high, of partly saturated compacted soil are<br>test in a triaxial cell. The first specimen fails at an additional axial load (i.e., deviator load) of 720<br>N under a cell pressure of 100 KN/m² The second specimen failed at an additional axial load of<br>915 N under a cell pressure of 200 KN/m².
