A dry bulk material's ____ is important for determining the quantity that can be stored in a given location.
A)market value
B)angle of repose
C)specific gravity
D)viscosity

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The angle of repose is the maximum angle at which a material can be piled or stacked without slumping or collapsing. It is an important factor in determining the quantity of dry bulk materials that can be stored in a given location, as it determines the height, slope and stability of the heap. The other choices (market value, specific gravity, viscosity) are not directly related to the storage capacity of bulk materials.
