Example HGE1.1
One slug is equivalent to how many kg?
Example HGE1.2
What is the mass density of fresh water
in slugs per cubic foot?
Example HGE1.3
A liquid in a 750-m3 container has a
mass of 1010 kg.
a. What is its mass density?
b. What is its specific weight
c. What is its gravity force?
d. What is its specific volume?
Example HGE1.4
The pressure gage in a given tank reads
115 mmHg. Calculate the equivalent height
of column of oil.
Example HGE1.5
The elevation at the bottom of the tank
shown is 4.0m. Find the elevation of the
liquid surface in piezometer B. See figure
on the board.
Example HGE1.6
Determine the gage pressure at A in the
given open-type manometer.
Example HGE1.7
Assuming oil in the differential-type
manometer shown at the board, calculate
the difference in pressures between A and
B.
Example HGE1.8
A 3-mm diameter tube is inserted in
mercury and later in water.
a. Assuming the tube is clean so that its
angle of contact with mercury is 140-deg
and the surface tension is 0.5140 N/m,
what is the amount of depression?
Example HGE1.8
b. Assuming the tube is clean so that its
angle of contact with water is 0-deg and the
surface tension is 0.0728 N/m, what is the
amount of rise?
Example HGE1.9
Chlorine gas at 30-deg is under a pressure
of 481 kPa. Assume a gas constant of 117
N-m/kg-K. Calculate the following:
a. Density
b. Specific weight
c. Specific volume
