# Problem Statement: Determine the weight of a rod in pound-force.
#Variables:
#V-Volume of rod [m^3]
#SG-Specific Gravity of rod [-]
#g-Gravitaty [9.8 m/s^2]
#D_r-density of rod [kg/m^3]
#D_w-density of water [kg/m^3]
#W-Weight of rod [lb_force]
#N-Newton [kg*m/s^2]
#lb_f-pound-force
#Assumptions:
# 1 N=1 [kg*m/s^2]
#SG=4.7 [-]
#g=1.25 [m/s^2]
#W=D_r*V*g
#1 N=.225 [lb_force]
#D_w=1000 [kg/m^3]
#Set inputs and constants
V=.3;
SG=4.7;
D_w=1000;
g=1.25;
#Calculate weight
W=SG*D_w*V*g;
#Convert to pound-force
lb_f=W*.225

#Problem Statement: Determine the density of tribromoethylene in kilograms
#per cubic meter
#Variables:
#H-height of cylinder [ft]
#P_s-surface Pressure [atm]
#P_t-total Pressure [atm]
#g=gravity [9.8 m/s^2]
#rho-Density [kg/m^3]
#Assumptions:
#P_t=P_s+rho*g*h
#g=9.8 [m/s^2]
#1 atm=101325 Pa
#1 Pa= 1 kg/m*s^2
#1 m=3.28 ft
#set input variables
H=25;
P_t=5;
P_s=3;
g=9.8;
#convert to SI units
H=H/3.28; #[ft]-->[m]
#calculate density of tribromoethylene
rho=((P_t*101325)-(P_s*101325))/(g*H)
