Question
Chapter 7, Problem 20P
Interpretation Introduction
(a)
Interpretation:
The pressure needs to be determined in psi on the pressure gauge that is used for scuba diving.
Concept Introduction:
The application of force per unit area of the surface is indicated as pressure and its unit of measurement is Pascal that is equal to 1 Newton per square meter.
Interpretation Introduction
(b)
Interpretation:
The pressure unit needs to be converted from psi to Pascal's.
Concept Introduction:
Atmospheric pressure is the pressure within the earth's atmosphere and is equal to 760mm Hg. It is further said that when converted to SI unit it is indicated as 101325 Pa.
