An on-farm diesel fuel tank is on a stand 5 feet above the ground. The tank is vented to the atmosphere (the air in the tank is

at atmospheric pressure). If the diesel level in the tank is 2.1 feet above the release point. If the density of diesel is 6.98 pounds/gallon, what is the gauge pressure of the fuel at the nozzle? What is the absolute pressure?
Gauge Pressure = XXXX psi

Absolute Pressure = XXXX psi

Answer:

Pg= 0.766 psi

Pabs= 15.27 psi

Explanation:

Given

h= 2.1 ft

1 ft = 0.3048 m

2.1 ft = 0.64 m

h= 0.64 m

ρ=6.98  pounds/gallon

1 pounds/gallon = 119.82 kg/m³

ρ = 825.6 kg/m³

The gauge pressure Pg

Pg= ρ g h

Pg=  825.6  x 10 x 0.64     ( take g =10 m/s²)

Pg= 5283.84 Pa

We know that

1 Pa= 0.000145 psi

Pg= 0.766 psi

Lets take atmospheric pressure Patm

Patm= 100 KPa

Pg= 5.283 KPa

Absolute pressure = Atmospheric pressure + Gauge pressure

Pabs= 100 + 5.283

Pabs= 105.283 KPa

We know that

1 KPa= 0.145 Psi

Pabs= 15.27 psi

Carla holds a ball 1.5 m above the ground. Daniel, leaning out of a car window, also holds a ball 1.5 m above the ground. Daniel
spayn [35]

Answer:

Carla

Explination: As Daniel's ball is dropped from the car moving at 40 mph in a horizontal direction, at the time the ball is dropped it is also moving at 40 mph in a horizontal direction due to inertia, a property of mass causing resistance to change, Daniel's ball will continue to move in a horizontal direction even after being dropped along with falling due to gravity. Daniel's ball will then fall in a projectile motion curve of sorts which will cause an overall velocity to not be straight down causing it not to fall to the ground as quickly as Carla's ball.

Sorry for the long explanation

You’ve made the hypothesis that the stepper the slope , the faster a ball will be rolling when it reaches the bottom .
BigorU [14]

Answer:

B) how steep the slope is

Explanation:

Because you have to know how is the influence of the steep of the slope in the time that a ball reaches the bottom. The steep of the slope is the variable that you would have to change in an experiment.

I hope this is useful for you

Debbie places two shopping carts in a cart Corral. she pushes the first cart, which then pushes a second cart. what force is bei
Bingel [31]

When Debbie pushes the first cart she is using an applied force. An applied force is created when someone or something pushes another thing using, of course, an applied force. Now, when the second cart is being pushed by the first cart, this is also an applied force. You can tell because the first cart is being pushed using forced and this causes the second cart to be pushed using some of the force that is being transmitted to the first cart.


Debbie exerts applied force on the first cart. The first cart exert applied force on the second cart.
