1. A vacuum gage reads 60.2 cm Hg. Determine the absolute pressure in kPa if the barometer reads 75.7
cm Hg. (The density of mercury is 13,550 kg/m3.)
Ans: 20.6 kPa
2. A gas is enclosed in a vertical, frictionless piston and cylinder arrangement. The surface area of the
piston is 20 cm2 and its mass is 5 kg. Calculate the gauge pressure of the gas, in pascals.
Ans: 24,520 Pa
3. A Fahrenheit thermometer and a Celsius thermometer indicate the same magnitude of temperature
of an object. What is the object's temperature?
