The quantity of air in the cylinder occupies a volume of 0.6 m at a pressure of 100KPa and at a temperature of 18 C. The press compresses the air until the pressure reaches 280KPa that occupies a volume of 0.26 m. 1. Determine the final temperature of the air? 2. If all of the other values remained the same what input pressure would have to be applied to the press to get the press output pressure to reach 500 KPa?
