Normally consolidated clay is very slippery. Because of this, it does not "stick together" very well. It runs off during rain storms causing silt buildup.

In normally consolidated clays, the soil particles are densely packed and in contact with each other, which prevents the development of cohesion. Cohesion in soils arises from the attractive forces between soil particles, but in normally consolidated clays, these forces are not significant due to compaction. This results in zero cohesion in normally consolidated clays.

How do you distinguish between variable and permanent charge of clays in soils?
Variable charge in clays comes from pH-dependent adsorption of ions on clay surfaces, while permanent charge arises from isomorphous substitution of ions in the crystal lattice. Variable charge can be modified by changing soil pH, while permanent charge remains constant irrespective of pH. Conducting pH-dependent tests or using selective extractants can help distinguish between variable and permanent charge of clays in soils.
How does the volume change in an isentropic process?
The entropy of an ideal gas during an isothermal process may change because normally the entropy is a net zero. The change of on isothermal process can produce positive energy.
How much zero gravity is there in space?
Zero! that's why it is called zero gravity!
How do you say 0.80?
You would say 0.80 as "zero point eight zero" or "eighty hundredths."
Is absolute zero is equal to -273 degrees on the Kelvin scale?

What is the angle of contact if forces of adhesion and cohesion are same?
zero
What is cohesion value of sand?
The cohesion value of sand typically ranges from very low to zero. Sand particles do not stick to each other and do not possess cohesive forces. This lack of cohesion is what allows sand to flow and easily be shifted or moved.
Can you have a fraction with zero as the denominator?
No not normally
When listing multiples do you include zero?
Not normally.
How do read 0004?
Four. (You normally ignore leading zeroes) Or zero, zero, zero, four if you must say all four digits.
If income in zero consumption in the short term will normally be?
greater than zero! Sure, it is correct, but not clear the reason
Can 12 be divided by 0?
Undefined: You cannot divide by zero
What is the circumference of a bumhole?

What is greater 2 or 02?
They are the same, but the zero to the left of the whole number 2 is meaningless and is not normally used. If this question was in reference to a decimal number, a zero as in 0.02, is normally placed to the left of the decimal. 0.2 is ten times as great as 0.02.
The per share amount normally assigned by the board of directors to a small stock dividend is?
zero
What are the different of counting numbers and whole numbers?
A counting number is one you would use normally, as in 1,2,3,4,5... not including zero. A whole number includes zero, but is not a negative integer.
What happens when magnitude of current or voltage become zero in alternating current fan?
It depends how long they are zero for. If for a minute or more the fan will stop. If they reach zero 100 or 120 times a second, as in normal operation, the fan will run normally.
