Test II. Problem Solving.

1. A new temperature scale say S is to be made wherein the boiling point of water is at 250S
and the freezing point is at 50S. Determine the conversion formula for C to S and F to
S. What is the absolute zero for this scale?
2. It is estimated that the mass of the earth is 5.98 x 10 24 kg and its mean radius is 6.38 x 10 6
m. Find its density? What is its specific weight?
3. A 60 kg mass has a potential energy of 45 kJ with respect to a given datum within the
earth’s standard gravitational field.
a. Find its height relative to the datum.
b. if the gravitational field is suddenly disturbed such that the local gravity becomes 8.7
m/s2 what will be the effect on the potential energy of the mass?
c. If this potential energy in b is converted to kinetic energy, what is its final velocity?
