The dead weight tester has been used to calibrate a pressure gage. After finishing the calibration (assume no errors), you use the equipment to measure the mass of an unlabeled object. If you read a pressure of 400 kPa, how much mass is being applied to the instrument, in kg? Diameter of piston: 10 mm O 2.1 kg 3.2 kg Weight Water Pressure Gage kPa
