The Louisiana Superdome has an interior volume of 125 million ft3, covered by a 440,000 ft² roof. On a
particular day, the interior air pressure gave a manometer reading of 19 inches mercury (pHg = 13.6 g/cm³).
Local atmospheric pressure is 102 kPa.
1.
kg
Calculate the mass of the air inside, assuming an average temperature of 20 °C.
2.
kN
Calculate the net force applied to the roof by the interior/exterior air (do not
account for the weight of the roof). Assume the roof is flat.
An open tube mercury manometer is used to measure the pressure in an
oxygen tank. When the atmospheric pressure is 1040 mbar, what is the
absolute pressure (in Pascal) in the tank if the height of the mercury in the
open tube is 28 cm higher? (density of mercury = 13.6 X 10° kg/m³) *

- Calculate the weight of air (in pounds) contained within a room 23 ft long, 10 ft wide, and 30 ft high.

Note: Specific Heat of Air in English Units, R = 1716 ft*lb/(slug* R) %3Darrow_forwardT F The specific weight of a fluid is the product of the fluid's density and the acceleration due to gravity. Stronger surface tension leads to higher capillary rise. Absolute pressures are frequently negative. If the pressure of fluid drops below the vapor pressure of that fluid at that temperature, the fluid will cavitate. F F T F F Density can be measured in lb;/ft° in the English system of units. For a hydrostatic incompressible fluid, pressure is independent of depth. A fluid with a high bulk modulus of elasticity is more difficult to compress than one with a low bulk modulus of elasticity. Viscosity is caused, in part, by the surface tension within a fluid. A fluid can resist an applied shear stress by deforming.
