    Sheet 1: Concepts and Definitions
    1- A company is paying SAR 0.25/kWh for electric power. To reduce its power bill, the company
    installed a wind turbine with a rated power of 30 kW. If the turbine operates 2200 hours per
    year at the rated power, determine the amount of electric power generated by the wind turbine
    and the money saved by the school per year
    2- A vacuum gage connected to a chamber reads 40 kPa at a location where the atmospheric
    pressure is 100 kPa. Determine the absolute pressure in the chamber
    3- Determine the atmospheric pressure at a location where the barometric reading is 740 mmHg
    and the gravitational acceleration is g = 9.805 m/s2. Assume the temperature of mercury to be
    10°C, at which its density is 13,570 kg/m3.
    4- A1-m3 container, as shown is filled with 0.12 m3 of granite, 0.15 m3 of sand, and 0.23 m of
    liquid 25 C water; the rest of the volume, 0.53 m 3, is air with a density of 1.15 kg/m3. Find the
    overall (average) specific volume and density.
    5- A manometer is used to measure the pressure of a gas in a tank. The fluid used has a specific
    gravity of 0.85, and the manometer column height is 55 cm, as shown. If the local atmospheric
    pressure is 96 kPa, determine the absolute pressure within the tank
    6- The water in a tank is pressurized by air, and the pressure is measured by a multifluid
    manometer as shown. The tank is located on a mountain at an altitude of 1400 m where the
    atmospheric pressure is 85.6 kPa. Determine the air pressure in the tank if h1 = 0.1 m, h2 = 0.2
    m, and h3 = 0.35 m. Take the densities of water, oil, and
    7- A piston/cylinder with a cross-sectional area of 0.01 m2 is connected with a hydraulic line to another
    piston/cylinder with a cross-sectional area of 0.05 m2. Assume that both chambers and the line are filled
    with hydraulic fluid of density 900 kg/m and the larger second piston/cylinder is 6 m higher up in
    elevation. The telescope arm and the buckets have hydraulic piston/cylinders moving them, as shown.
    With an outside atmospheric pressure of 100 kPa and a net force of 25 kN on the smallest piston, what
    is the balancing force on the second larger piston?
