    QUESTION 1 /4/
    A tank contains 500 kg of a liquid whose specific gravity is 2. Determine the volume of the
    liquid in the tank.

    QUESTION 2 /6/
    The inverted U-tube manometer below contains oil (SG = 0.9) and water as shown. The
    pressure differential between pipes A and B, 𝒑𝑨 − 𝒑𝑩 = −𝟑. 𝟎 𝒌𝑷𝒂. Determine the
    differential reading h.

    QUESTION 3 /10/
    Find the horizontal and vertical forces to hold stationary the nozzle shown in the figure
    below. The fluid flowing through it is 5 °C liquid water; 𝑨𝟏 = 𝟏. 𝟎 𝒎𝟐 , 𝑨𝟐 = 𝟎. 𝟐𝟓 𝒎𝟐 ,
    𝑽𝟏 = 𝟐𝟎 𝒎/𝒔, 𝒑𝟐 = 𝒑𝒂𝒕𝒎 , and 𝒑𝟏 = 𝒑𝒂𝒕𝒎 + 𝟑𝟎 𝒌𝑷𝒂. Neglect gravity.

    QUESTION 4 /10/
    The aerodynamic drag of a new sports car is to be predicted at a speed of 120 km/h at an air
    temperature of 25℃. Automotive Engineers built a one-fifth scale model of the car to test
    in a wind tunnel. It is winter, and the wind tunnel is located in an unheated building with an
    air temperature of 5℃. Determine how fast the Engineers should run the wind tunnel to

    achieve similarity between the model and the prototype. If the drag force on the model is
    given to be 35 N, what drag force can be expected on the sports car.
