Question

how to solve for the density of air? can anyone explain the process and how to get the value of Rspecific gas constant (1716 ft.lbf/slug.R)? I'm really confused. Thank you

Given
P= 10psi
T= -20°F
We know that,
Density of air at a state is given by,
%3D
RT
P =(10psi) (144 fn/4f¢) =
I=(-20°F+ 460o)°R = 440°R
& R 1716 ft.llof Islug.°R

where
140 ebf/ft?
%3D

1440 lbf/ft
(1716 ft Bbf/slug.R) (440°R)
3=0.00191 slylft'
