Question:
A. An air compressor fills a tank to a gage pressure of 125 psi. The barometri pressure is 760 millimeters of mercury. What is the absolute pressure in the tank in kPa?
B. The air in the tank is bled out through a valve, the valve is closed, and the tank and its contents sit out overnight. The temperature drops, while the barometric pressure decreases to 755 millimeters of mercury. A vacuum gage on the tank in the morning reads 0.5 inches of mercury. What is the absolute pressure in the tank in kPa?
