- A container which is air tight has a volume of * 2 * 500L internal pressure of 1.0 atmosphere, internal temperature of 15 °C is washed off ythe deck of a ship located in the Philippine Trench, and sinks to a depth where the pressure is 175 atmosphere and the temperature is 3 °C. What would be the volume in m³ of the gas inside be when the container breaks under the pressure at this depth?arrow_forwardA 5.0 L steel gas can is filled to the brim with gasoline at 10°C. Taking into account the expansion of the gas can, how much gasoline spills out when the gas and the gas can both reach 25°C when left out in the sunshine on a summer day. Given that the gas can is an isotropic solid, and that the coefficient of linear thermal expansion for steel is: 11 × 10-6 K-¹ and that the coefficient of volume thermal expansion for gasoline is 0.90 × 10-³ K-¹.arrow_forwardhow to do?arrow_forward
- The first real length standard, adopted more than 200 years ago, was a platinum bar with two very fine marks separated by what was defined to be exactly one meter. If this standard bar was to be accurate to within +1.0 µm, how carefully would the trustees have needed to control the temperature? The coefficient of linear expansion is 9 × 10-6/C°.arrow_forwardA car tire has a gauge pressure of 205,749 Pa, volume of 3 L, and temperature of 7°C. After several hours of driving, the temperature of the air increases by 17C° and 11% of the gas leaks out due to a nail stuck in the tread. Calculate the gauge pressure of the tire in psi at this time if the ambient atmospheric pressure is 1.00 x 105 Pa. Neglect any volume change of the tire. (1000 L = 1 m³; 1 psi = 6895 Pa) (Be careful with units!) Pgauge psiarrow_forwardThank u! A steel rule is calibrated for measuring lengths at 20.00°C. The rule is used to measure the length of a Vycor glass brick: when both are at 20.00°C, the brick is found to be 30.90 cm long. If the rule and the brick are both at 85.00°C, what would be the length of the brick as measured by the rule? Coefficient of linear expansion a for steel is 12.0 x10^-6 K-1 and for glass (Vycor) is 0.750 x 10^-6 K^-1.arrow_forward
