 Show complete solution.
 Draw figures if necessary.
 Summarize your answer.
 Submit solution in pdf/jpeg format in the item as specified in the classroom.
 Submit solution before 5 pm.

1. If a man weighs 155 lb on earth, specify (a) his mass in slugs, (b) his mass in kilograms,
and (c) his weight in newtons. If the man is on the moon, where the acceleration due to
gravity is gm = 5.30 ft/s2, determine (d) his weight in pounds, and (e) his mass in
kilograms.
2. Water has a density of 1.94 slug/ft3. What is the density expressed in SI units? Express
the answer to three significant figures.
3. A person weighs 150 N on the moon, where g = 1.64 m/s2. Determine (a) the mass of the
person and (b) the weight of the person on earth.
4. The radius and length of a steel cylinder are 60mm and 120 mm, respectively. If the mass
density of steel is 7850 kg/m3, determine the weight of the cylinder in pounds.
5. Convert the following: (a) 400 lb·ft to kN·m; (b) 6 m/s to mi/h; (c) 20 lb/in.2 to kPa; and
(d) 500 slug/in. to kg/m.
6. The mass moment of inertia of a certain body is I = 20 kg · m2. Express I in terms of the
base units of the U.S. Customary system.
7. The kinetic energy of a car of mass m moving with velocity v is E = mv2/2. If m = 1000
kg and v = 6 m/s, compute E in (a) kN · m; and (b) lb · ft.
8. In some applications dealing with very high speeds, the velocity is measured in mm/μs.
Convert 25 mm/μs into (a) m/s; and (b) mi/h.
9. Convert: (a) 200 lb · ft to N · m, (b) 350 lb/ft3 to kN/m3, (c) 8 ft/h to mm/s. Express the
result to three significant figures. Use an appropriate prefix.
10. A concrete column has a diameter of 350 mm and a length of 2 m. If the density
(mass/volume) of concrete is 2.45 Mg/m3, determine the weight of the column in pounds.
