1. Please write several dimensions associated with an area, weight, and speed.! 2. In connection with the first question, write also in units of EGS and IS! 3. what is the length of lb.?
1. Area lb : L2 Weight : MLT-2 Speed : LT-1 2. Area Weight EGS Ft2 Slug Ft2 s2 Speed FT / s2 M / s2
___________

IS m2 Kg m/s2

3. The pound comes from the Latin for pound weight. It stands for the unit Libra Rome.

1). A body requires a force of 100N to accelarate it at rate of 0.2 m s2 . Determine the mass of the body in (a) kilograms and (b) slugs ?

In this problem, we know that : ; From Newtos law, :

So :If 1 kg = 0.06854 slug So : 500 kg = 34 . 27 slugs So : the mass of the body in kilograms is 500 kg The mass of the body in slugs is 34. 27 slugs

2). The volume of rock is found to be 0.00015 m3 . If the rocks spesific gravity is 2.60, what is its weight? In this problem, we know that : V = 0.00015 m3 SG = 2.60

Water is the liquid in the pipe of fig and mercury is the manometer fluid!

If the diflection h is 60 cm and is 180 cm. what is the gase pressure at the centre of the pipe?

Solution :

If the pressure at the center of pipe is PA, the pressure resulting from 180 cm is P1, the pressure resulting from is P2 , and the pressure at B is PB so

Because the tube manometer is open to the atmosphere, the pressure at the B is zero then If the pressure can determined with

Given : A dam 20 m long retains 7 m of water, as shown in fig. Required : (1) The total resultant force actibg on the dam (2) Location of the center of presusure

Answer : 1).From the question we know:

So :

So, the total resultant force acting on the dam is 5541 kN

2).

So, the location of the center of pressure is 4.667 m
