I. A man takes 40 mg of a certain medicine. Each hour, the amount of medicine in the man's system decreases by 30%. How much medicine is left in the man's system after 5 hours? II. Consider an object in a surrounding with constant temperature of 25°C. If the temperature of the object decreases from 100°C to 90°C in 10 minutes, how much longer will it take for its temperature to cool to 80°C ?

The calorie is defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1C. Also, the energy content of food is typically expressed in Calories, which is equal here to 1000 calories. Convert the results of the previous problem to calories (1 Btu = 252 calories).
5: The water in a tank is pressurized by air, and the pressure is measured by a multifluid manometer as shown. Determine the gage pressure of air in the tank if h1 = 0.4 m, h2 = 0.6 m, and h3 = 0.8 m. Take the densities of water, oil, and mercury to be 1000, 850 , and 13,600 kg/m^3, respectively.

Fluid Mechanics question: As shown in the image, an air space above a long tube is pressurized to 50 kPa vacuum. Water (15oC) from a reservoir fills the tube to a height h. If the pressure in the air space is changed to 25 kPa vacuum, will h increase or decrease, and by how much? Assume atmospheric pressure is 100 kPa.
Natural gas is stored in a spherical tank at a temperature of 10°C. At a given initial time, the pressure in the tank is 100 kPa gage, and the atmospheric pressure is 100 kPa absolute. Sometime later, after considerably more gas is pumped into the tank, the pressure in the tank is 200 kPa gage, and the temperature is still 10°C. What will be the ratio of the mass of natural gas in the tank when p = 200 kPa gage to that when the pressure was 100 kPa gage? 8. At a temperature of 100°C and an absolute pressure of 5 atmospheres, what is the ratio of the density of water to the density of air, ρw/ρa?
