The density of gasoline is 730 kg/m3 at 0°C. Its average coefficient of volume expansion is 9.60 10-4(°C)−1. Assume 1.00 gal of

kipiarov [429]

Answer: 0.4911 kg

Explanation:

We have the following data:

$\rho_{0\°C}= 730 kg/m^{3}$ is the density of gasoline at $0\°C$

$\beta=9.60(10)^{-4} \°C^{-1}$ is the average coefficient of volume expansion

We need to find the extra kilograms of gasoline.

So, firstly we need to transform the volume of gasoline from gallons to $m^{3}$ :

$V=8.50 gal \frac{0.00380 m^{3}}{1 gal}=0.0323 m^{3}$ (1)

Knowing density is given by: $\rho=\frac{m}{V}$ , we can find the mass $m_{1}$ of 8.50 gallons:

$m_{1}=\rho_{0\°C}V$

$m_{1}=(730 kg/m^{3})(0.0323 m^{3})=23.579 kg$ (2)

Now, we have to calculate the factor $f$ by which the volume of gasoline is increased with the temperature, which is given by:

$f=(1+\beta(T_{f}-T_{o}))$ (3)

Where $T_{o}=0\°C$ is the initial temperature and $T_{f}=21.7\°C$ is the final temperature.

$f=(1+9.60(10)^{-4} \°C^{-1}(21.7\°C-0\°C))$ (4)

$f=1.020832$ (5)

With this, we can calculate the density of gasoline at $21.7\°C$ :

$\rho_{21.7\°C}=730 kg/m^{3} f=(730 kg/m^{3})(1.020832)$

$\rho_{21.7\°C}=745.207 kg/m^{3}$ (6)

Now we can calculate the mass of gasoline at this temperature:

$m_{2}=\rho_{21.7\°C}V$ (7)

$m_{2}=(745.207 kg/m^{3})(0.0323 m^{3})$ (8)

$m_{2}=24.070 kg$ (9)

And finally calculate the mass difference $\Delta m$ :

$\Delta m=m_{2}-m_{1}=24.070 kg-23.579 kg$ (10)

$\Delta m=0.4911 kg$ (11) This is the extra mass of gasoline

Match the theory to the statement that best describes it. 1. big bang. 2. steady state. 3.osscillating universe. 4. inflation Ch

Gre4nikov [31]

Explanation :

(1) Big bang : (1) The most accepted theory on the origin of the universe.

This theory shows the expanding of the universe from high density and high-temperature states.

(2) Steady state : (3) All is the same and will always stay the same.

Steady state means that the properties of any system remain the same always.

(3) Oscillating universe : (4) Agrees with the big bang theory but insists the universe expanded much quicker.

Oscillating universe theory is the result of big bang theory.

(4) Inflation Choices : (2) it's like an inflating and deflating balloon that never stops.

In cosmology, cosmic inflation or deflation is just the expanding and contraction of the universe.

So, the statements and the choices are related as:

(1)-(1)

(2)- (3)

(3)-(4)

(4)-(2)
