Unit Weight

ϒω = 46800/5.6

= 8357.14 N/m3

b. Density

Density = 8357.14/9.81 = 852kg/m3

c. Specific Gravity

Sp.Gr = 852/1000

Sp.Gr= 0.85

2.

Weight = 1200(9.81)

= 11772 N

= 11.77 kN

Mass Density

ρ = m/v

ρ = 1200/0.952

ρ = 1260.5 kg/m3

b. Specific Weight

ϒ = w/v

= 11.77/0.952

= 12.36kN/m3

c. Specific Gravity

Sp.Gr = 12.36/9.81 = 1/26

a. Density

Density = 0.500/0.325 = 15.38 kg/m3

b. Specific Weight

Sp.Wt. = 15.38(9.81) = 15088 N/m3

c. Weight

Weight = 15.1(0.325) = 4.9 kN

4.

a. Mass Density

ρ = 56000/9.81 = 5708 kg/m3

b. Specific Volume = 1/ρ

c. Specific Gravity

Sp.gr= 56/9.81 = 5.71

5.

a. Mass Density

Mass in Slugs

W = mg

4.08 = m (32.2)

m= 0.1267 slugs

b. Mass in kg

m = 0.1267 (32.2) / 2.2 = 1.85kg

c. Volume in ft3

W = ϒ Vol.

4.08 = 62.4 Vol.

Vol. = 0.065 ft3

7.

Weight of water = ϒ V

ϒso V50 = ϒ160 V160

V160 = 3.5803 ft3

b. Change in Volume

Change in Volume = (3.5803 – 3.50) / 3.50 = 0.023 = 2.3% (increase)

c. Wt. of water that must be removed
