Chapter 10, Problem 2ICA
The worksheet provided was designed to calculate the total pressure felt by an object submerged in a fluid as a function of the depth to which the object is submerged.
The user will enter the surface pressure (in units of atmospheres), specific gravity of the fluid, and the gravity of the planet (in units of meters per second squared). All user input is shown in red.
The worksheet will calculate the surface pressure in units of pascals, density of the fluid in kilograms per cubic meter, and depth in units of feet. All conversions are shown in orange. Format the pressure and density to a whole number, and the height in meters to three decimal places.
Finally, the worksheet will calculate the total pressure in units of atmospheres; format to two decimal places.
Complete the starting Excel file to meet these criteria. The following sample worksheet is shown for comparison.

Use your weight in pounds (while standing on the surface of the Earth) to calculate your mass in the following units (1 kg weighs approx. 2.205 lb on the surface of the Earth). Show all your calculation, how you cancel the units and use the correct number of digits to get credit. Use scientific notation. Weight in pounds = 200 mass in grams = mass in kilograms = mass in teragrams = mass in picograms =

I am planning to perform some volume-flow rate measurements in the Fluid Mechanics Laboratory. For this, I need a volumetric measuring tank (graduated cylinder) and a stopwatch. I considered the volume of the measured tank as 15 gallons and a stopwatch with reaction time as 1/10th of a second (though resolution of 1/1000th of a second). What is the volume flow rate if it takes 5 minutes to fill a 15-gallon of tank?
