Where will the main sewer line be?
If you have a basement, you can see where the line goes through the wall. It is probably a straight line from that point to the street or alley depending on where it is. If in a group of track houses, it may angle to the property line and those two house will run in the same ditch. It can be anyplace, there is no set place it has to be, only the depth. If you don't have a basement, you can use the same directions and go from the main vent in the roof.

How do you unclog a sewer pipe after a sewer snake goes through the clog yet the pipe is still clogged?

We are having some work done and the builder had filled a redundant washer washer pipe with expanding foam, trouble is, he filled the drain to the main sewer at the same time, thanks again
How do you stop the kitchen water from draining into the bathtub?
You apparently have a creative drain system in your house. Your kitchen sink and your bath tub drains are tied together on the same branch flowing to your main line. I am assuming the toilets are not bubbling or overflowing when the kitchen sink drains. If they are, your main sewer line is clogged. If not, you need to have someone (preferably a plumber) run a cable or snake, as some people call it, through the kitchen sink drain.
Define law of transmissibility of forces?
"The condition of equilibrium or motion of a rigid body is remain unchanged, if a force acting on the rigid body is replaced by another force of the same magnitude and same direction but, acting anywhere along the same line of action."

The line of action refers to an imaginary line in the same direction as a force acting on an object. It helps determine the direction in which an object will move or rotate when a force is applied to it. Understanding the line of action is important in analyzing the effects of forces on objects.
Do you need a trap on a bathtub?
