Which of the following is a characteristic of Mohr's circle in determining the shear strength of soil?
1
The maximum shear strength is equal to (Major principal stress + Minor principal stress) ÷ 2 and occurs on a plane inclined at 45° to the major principal plane.
2
The maximum shear strength is equal to (Major principal stress ÷ Minor principal stress) × 2 and occurs on a plane inclined at 45° to the minor principal plane.
3
The maximum shear strength is equal to (Major principal stress × Minor principal stress) ÷ 2 and occurs on a plane inclined at 45° to the minor principal plane.
4
The maximum shear strength is equal to (Major principal stress - Minor principal stress) ÷ 2 and occurs on a plane inclined at 45° to the major principal plane.
