Chapter 12, Problem 44P
Space debris impact is a real concern for spacecraft. If a piece of space debris were to create a hole of 0.001 in.2 area in the hull of the International Space Station (ISS), at what rate would air leak from the ISS? Assume that the atmosphere in the International Space Station (ISS) is air at a pressure of 14.7 psia and a temperature of 65°F.

By mistake,the tire was filled with 0.768 lb of carbon dioxide (R = 0.0451 BTU/lb-R) before deflatingand inflating the tire again with air. Prove that:a. 0.502 lb of air was needed to fill the tire; andb. that there was change of pressure of 6.442 psi when the car started moving andthe temperature increased by 75 deg C.

- I've posted the below question earlier, and I received the answer. This is the question: A J-shaped tube is filled with air at 760 Torr and 22 °C. The long arm is closed off at the top and is 100.0 cm long; the short arm is 40.00 cm high. Mercury is poured through a funnel into the open end. When the mercury spills over the top of the short arm, what is the pressure on the trapped air? Let h be the length of mercury in the long arm. I need further explanation of one step: - when P2 is obtained in the short arm, the equation is 40-h+P1 1. How did we get this equation? 2. the short arm does not contain any air, why do we create an equation of P2 in the short arm?
