A gas cylinder is connected to a manometer that contains water. The other end of the manometer is open to the atmosphere, which
in Flagstaff is 79 kPa absolute. Draw a sketch of the problem and determine the absolute static pressure in the gas cylinder if the manometer is reading 13 in H2O. Assume the water in the manometer is at 20 °C
1 answer:
Answer: the absolute static pressure in the gas cylinder is 82.23596 kPa
Explanation:
Given that;
patm = 79 kPa, h = 13 in of H₂O,
A sketch of the problem is uploaded along this answer.
Now
pA = patm + 13 in of H₂O ( h × density × g )
pA= 79 + (13 × 0.0254 × 9.8 × 1000/1000)
pA = 82.23596 kPa
the absolute static pressure in the gas cylinder is 82.23596 kPa

Answer: At time 18.33 seconds it will have moved 500 meters.
Explanation:
Since the acceleration of the car is a linear function of time it can be written as a function of time as
Integrating both sides we get
Now since car starts from rest thus at time t = 0 ; v=0 thus c=0
again integrating with respect to time we get
Now let us assume that car starts from origin thus D=0
thus in the first 15 seconds it covers a distance of
Thus the remaining 125 meters will be covered with a constant speed of
in time equalling
Thus the total time it requires equals 15+3.33 seconds
t=18.33 seconds
