3. An automobile tire contains 3730 cu.in. of air at 32 psig and 80°F. (a) What mass of air is in the tire? (b) In operation, the air temperature increases to 145°F. If the tire is inflexible, what is the resulting percentage increase in the gage pressure? (c) What mass of the 145°F air must be bled off to reduce the pressure back to its original value?
A pressure cooker operates by cooking food at a higher pressure and temperature than is possible at atmospheric conditions. Steam is contained in the sealed pot, with a small vent hole in the middle of the cover, allowing steam to escape. The pressure is regulated by covering the vent hole with a small weight, which is displaced slightly by the escaping steam. Atmospheric pressure is 1 bar, the vent hole area is 7mm2, and the pressure inside should be 2.75 bar. What is the mass in kg of the small weight?
