1. Find the absolute pressure (kPa) at a depth of 5m below the surface of a liquid with relative density 0.85. The barometer reading on the surface is 1.5 bar. Use 1000 millibars = 101.325 kPa = 1 atm. (2 decimal)
A U-tube manometer containing a light oil (specific gravity 0.7) is used to measure
the static pressure of air (density 1.2 kg/m³) in a container. If the gauge pressure is
206 N/m², what is the indicated height of oil?
The pressure in a gas tank is 2.75 atmospheres. Compute the pressure in
(a) psi,
(b) pascals, and
(c) millimeters of mercury (SG = 13.6).
Use 1 atmosphere = 14.7 psi= 101.325 kPa
