Eat 213 (Example of Question) Chapter 1

This document contains 7 sample questions for Chapter 1 of the EAT 213 course. The questions cover topics like calculating density, specific weight, and specific gravity for various fluids given their masses and volumes. They also ask about fluid viscosity, surface tension, and determining specific gravity when given the weights of empty and filled containers. Mastering these fundamental fluid properties and calculations is important as they are concepts regularly built upon in subsequent chapters.
