a) Direct proportionality
b) Inverse proportionality
c) Equal
d) None of the mentioned
View Answer

Answer: b
Explanation: Correct relation explaining it is ΔP=hϱg, where density becomes inversely portioned to length.

7. Which of the following represents relation for a pressure change in a column?
a) hϱg
b) hϱ
c) hg
d) n one of the mentioned
View Answer

Answer: a
Explanation: Product of density, acceleration due to gravity and length of the column represents pressure difference in column.

8. ____________ can be used for measuring density.
a) Load cell
b) pH meter
c) Pitot static device
d) Mutimeter
View Answer

Answer: a
Explanation: For density measurement, load cell can also be used. It employs an indication of density in terms of force.

9. Which of the following is used to represent mass per unit volume of a substance?
a) Mass density
b) Weight density
c) Specific density
d) None of the mentioned
View Answer

10. Specific volume of all substances depends on ______________
a) Temperature only
b) Pressure only
c) Both temperature and pressure
d) Temperature and pressure for some
View Answer

Answer: d
Explanation: For compressible fluids, specific volume depends on temperature and pressure, for all other substances specific volume depends on temperature only.
