A student checks her car's tyre air pressure at a petrol station and finds it is 31 psi. Re-express this as an absolute pressure in kpa. Note any assumptions you make.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Absolute Pressure=315.06256 kPa

Explanation:

Gauge pressure= 31 psi

Atmospheric Pressure at Sea level= 1 atm=101.325 kPa

[tex]1\ psi=6.89476\ kPa\\\Rightarrow 31\ psi=31\times 6.89476\\\Rightarrow 31\ psi=213.73756\ kPa=Gauge\ Pressure\\Absolute\ Pressure=Gauge\ Pressure+Atmospheric\ Pressure\\\Rightarrow Absolute\ Pressure=213.73756+101.325\\\therefore Absolute\ Pressure=315.06256\ kPa[/tex]
