unanswered questions or grayed questions are not specifically tested on the exams but may still be of interest Answers in bold have been discussed in class The topics related to answers in italics have been discussed in class, but the concept question itself has not and probably won’t be unless one of you brings it up questions in lavender are less likely to be important for the multiple-choice portion of the exams Links below break these questions up by exam (e.g., you need only study up to the exam 1 link for exam 1) exam 1 exam 2 exam 3 ConcepTest Question “fluids magnitudes 1” Later we will learn about buoyancy, a concept that may already be familiar to you. A consequence: when you weigh yourself on a scale, you underestimate your true weight by the weight of the air you displace. Typically, what is this error (how many pounds does a volume of ordinary air the size of an average person weigh)? 1.5 pounds 0.15 pounds 0.015 pounds 0.0015 pounds ConcepTest Question “fluids magnitudes 2” Water is approximately how many times more dense than air? 30 100 300 1000 3000 ConcepTest Question “fluids magnitudes 3” Comparing any gas to its liquid version (e.g., steam to liquid water, nitrogen to liquid nitrogen, etc.), the gas is 300-3000 times less dense than the liquid. true false ConcepTest Question “fluids magnitudes 4” A typical barometric pressure is 14.7 psia. What would the barometric pressure have to rise to for the windows (simple plates of glass) on a typical building to shatter? 14.8 psia 15.7 psia 147 psia much higher than 147 psia ConcepTest Question “what is psia” What is the difference between psi, psig, psia? There is no difference Psia is relative to a perfect vacuum, whereas psig is relative to something else (typically the barometric pressure) and psi is ambiguous Psia stands for “pounds per square inch of area” ConcepTest Question “fluids magnitudes 5” Imagine a buil
