A soccer referee inflates a soccer ball to the standard required measured pressure for a game of 90kPa, before the game. The balloon has an internal volume of 2650 cm3 and the air is at a temperature of 25°C when the balloon is first inflated. The ball is brought onto the field of play, and by the time the game starts, the air temperature has dropped to 0°C. Assuming that the volume of the ball does not change significantly, determine the following: a. The amount of heat transferred from the air to the ball during the process.b. The initial pressure to which the balloon must be inflated so that it is at the required measured pressure of 90kPa when it reaches a temperature of 0°C.

Consider a differential manometer whose ends are connected to two different pipes A andB and containing different liquids at different levels. Let us assume that the pressure at point A is more than that at point B. Oil is in pipe A whose density 800 kg/m³ shows a difference in mercury levels as 100 mm. The height of oil between center of pipe A to the mercury level in left limb is 200 mm. Methanol (relative density 0.791) is in pipe B and the height of Methanol between center of pipe B and mercury level in the right limb is 5 cm. Calculate the difference in pressures at the two points A and B.

The pressure in an automobile tire depends on the temperature of the air in the tire. When the air temperature is 25 degC, the pressure gage reads 210 kPa. If the volume of the tire is 0.025 m^3, the pressure rises in the tire when the air temperature in the tire rises to 50 degC. Determine the amount of air, in kg, that must be bled off to restore pressure to its original value at this temperature. Assume the atmospheric pressure to be 100 kPa
Measuring the drop in pressure with a manometer as a function of temperature within a sealed container filled with an ideal gas provides a technique to show that the magnitude of "zero absolute temperature" or OK corresponds to -273 °C. If this experiment is conducted, starting at 1 atm and 67 °C, instead of in boiling water, what will the pressure be, in mmHg, when cooled to 0°C?
