H.W: If you were an engineer in a company that has a problem reading the gauge pressure precisely by a manometer in the following Figure. How would you help Fluid to solve this issue? If you know that the pressure difference is really low. Analyze the problem mathematically and try to repair it in the simplest, and easiest, way. Provide some suggestions and solve them mathematically to improve your point of view. Given: The fluid flow in the channel is Air. The working fluid of the manometer is Mercury. The Pressure difference between points 1 and 2 is 130 pa. A flow section or flow device B

SAE 30 oil is contained in a cylinder with inside diameter of 1 in. and length of 1 ft. What is the pressure required to decrease the volume of the oil by 2%?

A 10 cm long rectangular bar (when subjected to a tensile load) deforms by 0.1 mm. Calculate the normal strain.

Former basketball player Shaquille ONeal weighs approximately 335 lb and wears a size 23 shoe. Estimate the pressure he exerts on a floor. What pressure would he exert if his shoe size were 13? State all your assumptions, and show how you arrived at a reasonable solution.

We have used an experimental setup similar to Example 10.1 to determine the value of a spring constant. The deflection caused by the corresponding weights are given in the accompanying table. What is the value of the spring constant? Weight (lb) The Deflection of the Spring (in.) 5.0 0.48 10.0 1.00 15.0 1.90 20.0 2.95

Determine the specific gravity of the following materials: gold ( = 1208 lb/ft3), platinum ( = 1340 lb/ft3), silver ( = 654 lb/ft3), sand ( = 94.6 lb/ft3), freshly fallen snow ( = 31 lb/ft3), tar( = 75 lb/ft3), hard rubber ( = 74.4 lb/ft3).

In Chapter 12, we explained that the electric power consumption of various electrical components can be determined using the following power formula: P = VI = RI2 where P is power in watts, V is the voltage, I is the current in amps, and R is the resistance of the component in ohms. Plot the power consumption of an electrical component with a resistance of 145 ohms. Vary the value of the current from zero to 4 amps. Discuss and plot the change in power consumption as the function of current drawn through the component.
