    Q No. 1
    I. A fluid mass occupies 2 m3. Calculate the density, specific weight, and specific gravity if the
    fluid mass is a) 4 kg b) 8 kg c) 15 kg

    Q No. 2
    Mercury makes an angle of 130o with respect to the vertical when in contact with clean glass. How far
    will mercury depress in a clean, 10-mm-diameter glass tube if σ = 0.467 N/m.
    Q No. 3
    A manometer connects an oil pipeline and a water pipeline as shown in figure. Determine the
    difference in pressure between the two pipelines using the readings on the manometer. Use SGoil=0.86
    and SGHg=13.6. Assume the weight of air is negligible.

    Q No. 4
    A closed, 5-m-tall tank is filled with water to a depth of 4 m. The top portion of the tank is filled with
    air which, as indicated by a pressure gage at the top of the tank, is at a pressure of 20 kPa. Determine
    the pressure that the water exerts on the bottom of the tank.
    Q No. 5
    A closed cylindrical tank filled with water has a hemispherical dome and is connected to an inverted
    piping system as shown in Figure. The liquid in the top part of the piping system has a specific gravity
    of 0.8, and the remaining parts of the system are filled with water. If the pressure gage reading at A is
    60 kPa, determine:
    (a) The pressure in pipe B, and
    (b)The pressure head, in millimetres of mercury, at the top of the dome (point C).
    Q No. 6
    For the inclined-tube manometer shown in figure below, the pressure in pipe A is 0.6 psi. The fluid in
    both pipes A and B is water, and the gage fluid in the manometer has a specific gravity of 2.6. What is
    the pressure in pipe B.

    Q No. 7:
    A homogeneous, 4-ft-wide, 8-ft-long rectangular gate weighing 800 lb is held in place by a horizontal
    flexible cable as shown in figure. Water acts against the gate which is hinged at point A. Friction in
    the hinge is negligible. Determine the tension in the cable.
    Q No.8:
    The 18-ft-long gate shown in figure is a quarter circle and is hinged at H. Determine the horizontal
    force, P, required to hold the gate in place. Neglect friction at the hinge and the weight of the gate.

    Q No.9:
    An irregularly shaped piece of a solid material weighs 8.05 lb in air and 5.26 lb when completely
    submerged in water. Determine the density of the material.
