A gasoline tanker truck can hold 9000 gallons of gasoline. It isfilled with gasoline at a temperature of 68°F (density is 1.32slug/ft3, dynamic viscosity is 0.61x10-6 lb·s/ft2). It takes 2hours to fill the tank through a 2.5-inch diameter hose.Determine:

How do volumetric flowrate, average velovity, weight flowrateand Reynolds number differ if the gasoline is at a muchhigher temperature when it is pumped into the tank – assume densityand viscosity are both 2% lower. A volume of 9000 gallons of thiswarmer gasoline is pumped into the truck during a 2-hour period. Nocalculations are required, just state if each answer is largeror smaller, and explain why using equations.
