3.8 Following CT scanning, data are available for a chalk core plug from the North Sea area. The core plug is scanned at equal distance for 9 different slices. The second column provides the CT numbers for a clean sample (denoted as air ref), whereas the third column provides the CT numbers for a 100% brine-saturated sample (denoted as water ref). CT number for pure water is 32 HU and -1000 HU for air. Calculate the porosities of each slice of this core plug.

Geotechnical Engineering (UPVOTE WILL BE GIVEN. PLEASE ANSWER THE QUESTION CORRECLTY. NO LONG EXPLANATION NEEDED. FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY.) A moist soil weighed 895 g with a volume of 425 cm3. After drying, the sample weighed 775 g. Of the dried soil, 400 g was poured into a vessel loose state. Its volume subsequently determined to be 275 cm3. That same 400 g was then vibrated and tamped to a volume of 212 cm3 with Gs = 2.71. Determine the designation of the granular soil based on its relative density. (3 decimal places - Do not round off unless it's the final answer)
