An infinite slope is shown in the figure. The shear strength parameters at the interface of soil and rock are as follows: \( c^{\prime}=18 \mathrm{kN} / \mathrm{m}^{3} \) and \( \phi^{\circ}=25^{\circ} \). Consider that there is no seepage through the soill). a) If \( \mathrm{H}=8 \mathrm{~m} \) and \( \beta=20 \), find the FOS against sliding on the rock surface, b) If \( \beta=30 \), find the height, \( H \) for which the Fos \( =1 \).
