i) If the oil have mass of 1.58 kg, compute its density, specific weight and specific gravity. ii) An open container with 120 mm width and 180 mm long is holding 75 mm depth of water. Then, the students continue their experiment by filling oil from cylindrical can into the container. Compute the pressure at the bottom of the container.
