CE 321 PRE-LAB QUESTIONSLABORATORY # 1: FLUID STATICSNOTE: These questions are due before class begins on the day of the specified lab. 5points will be deducted from your grade in this lab if these are not turned in andanswered.Answers to these questions should be typed (equations may be written by hand)1. Identify all the pieces of the Fluid Static apparatus that can generate moments(list). (See Figure on “Figures and Drawings” page of CE321 webpage)2. Write a complete moment equation for the system if filled with water.3. Simplify the above equation for the following conditions: a) no water, b) noweight in the tray, c) counter weight is sued to balance the system.4. Explain why the balanced system may be used to determine YR if initiallycalibrated (part c of question 3)5. What possible errors does the moment equation suggest that may arise fromdetermining YR in this manner?Name______________ PID ______________ Date_______________Section____________CE 321 PRE-LAB QUESTIONSLABORATORY # 1: FLUID
