The pressure gauge on an air tank shows 75 kPawhen the diver is 10 m down in the ocean. At whatdepth will the gauge pressure be zero? What doesthat mean?
A rocket is accelerating horizontally to the right at 10 g. The pressure gauge is connected by a 0.6 m length tube to the left end of the fuel tank. If the pressure in the tank is 35 bar, and if fuel specific gravity is 0.8, determine the pressure gauge reading.
A steel cylinder at sea level contains air at a high pressure. Attached to the tank are two gauges, one that reads absolute pressure and one that readsgauge pressure. The tank is then brought to the top of a mountain. For each of the two gauges, does the pressure reading decrease, increase, or remain the same? Does the difference between the two readings decrease, increase, or remain the same? Explain.
