 Question #1 (a) Write equations to calculate gauge pressure, absolute pressure

Question #1 (a) Write equations to calculate gauge pressure, absolute pressure and vacuum pressure. Discuss their differences. (b) A gas is stored in a vessel in which gauge shows reading of 150 kPa, where the atmospheric pressure is 100 kPa. Calculate the absolute pressure (kPa) (c) A vacuum gauge reads 60 kPa, where the atmospheric pressure is 100 kPa. Calculate the absolute pressure (d) A gas is stored in a container having total pressure of 250 kPa. If the atmospheric pressure is 100 kPa, what would be the gauge reading under these conditions. (e) If the gauge pressure is 100 kPa and absolute pressure is 200 kPa. What is the atmospheric pressure
