Sheet 01

The document contains three questions about concepts in physics and engineering. Question 1 defines kg-mass and kg-force and asks about weight calculations. Question 2 asks about pressure calculations at different depths in water and temperature conversions. Question 3 asks about vacuum gauge readings, pressure inside a piston cylinder device, and calculating the mass and weight of air in a room.

Sheet 01

Question 1:
1. What is the difference between kg-mass and kg-force?
2. What is the weight, in N, of an object with a mass of 200 kg at a location where g 5 9.6
m/s2?
3. A 3-kg plastic tank that has a volume of 0.2 m3 is filled with liquid water. Assuming the
density of water is 1000 kg/m3, determine the weight of the combined system.
4. What is specific gravity? How is it related to density?

Question 2:
1. The absolute pressure in water at a depth of 9 m is read to be 185 kPa. Determine (a) the
local atmospheric pressure, and (b) the absolute pressure at a depth of 5 m in a liquid
whose specific gravity is 0.85 at the same location.
2. The deep body temperature of a healthy person is 37°C. What is it in Kelvin?
3. What is the temperature of the heated air at 150°C in °F and R?

Question 3:
1. A vacuum gauge connected to a chamber reads 35 kPa at a location where the
atmospheric pressure is 92 kPa. Determine the absolute pressure in the chamber.
2. Gas is contained in a vertical, frictionless piston-cylinder device. The piston has a mass
of 3.2 kg and a cross-sectional area of 35 cm2. A compressed spring above the piston
exerts a force of 150 N on the piston. If the atmospheric pressure is 95 kPa, determine the
pressure inside the cylinder.
3. Determine the mass and the weight of the air contained in a room whose dimensions are 6
m x 6 m x 8 m. Assume the density of the air is 1.16 kg/m3.
