Chapter 2, Problem 2.64PP
A capillary type viscometer similar to that shown in Fig. 2.7 is being used to measure the viscosity of an oil having a specific gravity of 0.90. The following data apply:
Tube inside diameter = 0.100 in = D
Length between manometer taps = 12.0 in = L Manometer fluid = mercury
Manometer deflection = 7.00 in = /?
Velocity of flow = 4.82 ft/s = v
Determine the dynamic viscosity of the oil in lbs2/ft.

A "dead-weight" pressure testing machine as shown in Fig. Q5b is used to measure
the accuracy of a Bourdon pressure gauge. If the weight and piston together weigh
200 N and the piston diameter is 2.5 cm, find the percentage error of the Bourdon
pressure gauge if it indicates a pressure of 350 kPa.
