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

In this model, the velocity of the spacecraft at position 2 is the velocity of the craft at position 4. at position 1, the direc
Free_Kalibri [48]

1. The velocity of the spacecraft at position 2 is greater than the velocity of the craft at position 4.

This is due the gravity field of the Earth is used to accelerate the craft. This is true when in a specific point the direction of the movement of the craft is the same direction of the movement of the planet.

In this case the craft will be “catched” by the Earth’s gravitational field, making the craft  to enter a circular orbit.

2. At point 1, the direction of the spacecraft changes because of the gravitational force between earth and the spacecraft.

As explained in the first answer, this is the exact point where the trajectory of the spacecraft enters into a circular orbit because of the attraction due gravity of the Earth and therefore changes its direction.

3. Position 3 represents the orbital path of Earth

Being this the orbital path of the Earth and considering the trajectory of the craft, the condition of accelerating the craft is accomplished. If the orbital path of the Earth were the opposite, the effect on the craft would be braking.

Note all of these is related to the gravitational assistance, this consists in a maneuver in which the energy of the gravitational field of a planet or satellite is used to obtain an acceleration or braking of the probe or craft, changing its trajectory.
