Problem 1
Write a script that will ask for pressure value in psi and display the equivalent pressure in \(\mathrm{kPa}\) with a statement, such as "The converted pressure is: \(\ldots\) "
3 step solution
Problem 2
Write a script that generates a table of conversions from Fahrenheit to Celsius temperatures for a range and increment entered by the user, such as
6 step solution
Problem 3
Pascal's Law states that pressure is transmitted undiminished in all directions throughout a fluid at rest. (See the illustration below). An initial force of \(150 \mathrm{~N}\) is transmitted from a piston of 25 \(\mathrm{mm}^{\wedge} 2\) to a piston of \(100 \mathrm{~mm}^{\wedge} 2 .\) This force is progressively increased up to \(200 \mathrm{~N}\). Write a script that computes the corresponding load carried by the larger piston and tabulate your results.
