Lesson 5: Fluid Statics

Assessment / Assignment

Instruction; Show your complete and neat solution. Identify your final answer in
the solution.
1. A piece of copper whose density is 8.93 g/cm^3 has a mass of 180 g in air and 162 g
when submerged in a certain liquid. What is the mass density of the liquid?

2. What is the mass of one liter of methyl alcohol whose density is 190 kg/m^3. What is
its weight?

3. When placed in a pycnometer, 20 g of salt displaces 7.6 g of kerosene. If the mass


density of kerosene is 0.83 g/cm^3, find the volume and density of the salt.

4. An irregular metallic solid has a mass of 35 g. If its length is 10 cm, its width 8 cm,
and its thickness 5 cm, what is the mass density of the metal?

5. A thin sheet of gold foil has an area of 3.05 cm^2 and a mass of 6.3 mg. How thick is
the foil? The mass density of gold is 19,300 kg/m^3.
6. A 60 mL flask is filled with mercury at 0C. When the temperature rises to 80C, 1.47 g
of mercury spills out of the flask. Assuming the volume of the flask is constant, find the
density of mercury at 80C if its density at 0C is 13,645 kg/m^3.

7. When equal masses of two substances are mixed, the resultant density is 2.5

g/cm^3. When equal volumes are mixed, the resultant density is 4.5 g/cm^3. What are
the densities of the two substances?
8. A nurse applies a force of 45 N to a syringe with a fluid inside. The diameter of the

syringe piston measures 1.15 cm. By how much is the pressure in the fluid increased
due to the applied force?

9. Water from a spring is carried through a pipe of length 100 m down a hill inclined at
20 degrees to the horizontal. When the pipe is full but water is not flowing, what is the
pressure at the lower end of the pipe?

10. Three children each having a mass of 37.4 kg make a log raft by lashing together
logs of diameter 32 cm and length 1.77 m. How many logs will be needed to keep them
afloat? Take the density of the wood to be 0.75 X 10^3 kg/m.
