Answer:
Explanation:
First, we find the mass of the air originally in the tank.
Density is given as mass divided by volume. It is given as:
Therefore, mass is:
Density of air = ; Volume of the tank =
The mass of the air initially in the tank is 7 kg.
After air is allowed to enter, the mass changes.
New density =
The new mass will be:
We can now find the mass of air that has entered the tank:
Mass of air that entered tank = New mass of air - Original mass of air
M = 22.75 - 7.0 = 15.75 kg
The mass of air that entered the tank is 15.75 kg.
