An air compressor and takes atmospheric Air at 14.7 PSI and increases its pressure to 150 psi ( Gauge). the pressurized air is stored in a horizontal tank. what is the absolute pressure of air inside the tank

Respuesta :

Answer:

The absolute pressure of air inside the tank is 164.7 psi.

Explanation:

Given that,

Atmospheric pressure = 14.7 Psi

Gauge pressure = 150 psi

We need to calculate the absolute pressure of air inside the tank

Using formula of absolute pressure

[tex]P_{ab}=P_{g}+P_{atm}[/tex]

Where, [tex]P_{g}[/tex] = gauge pressure

[tex]P_{atm}[/tex] =atmospheric pressure

Put the value into the formula

[tex]P_{ab}=150+14.7[/tex]

[tex]P_{ab}=164.7\ psi[/tex]

Hence, The absolute pressure of air inside the tank is 164.7 psi.
