Consider two enclosed cylindrical tanks filled with air. Tank A is 8 ft tall while tank B is 7 ft tall, their diameter is both 6 ft. If the pressure and temperature inside both tanks are maintained equal, how much mass of air is inside tank B if tank A is filled with 3,872 Ibm of air? Solve using standard English units. Express your answer in slugs and round off to the nearest hundredths

Question
Consider two enclosed cylindrical tanks filled with air. Tank A is 8 ft tall while tank B is 7 ft tall, their diameter is both 6 ft. If the pressure and temperature inside both tanks are maintained equal, how much mass of air is inside tank B if tank A is filled with 3,872 Ibm of air? Solve using standard English units. Express your answer in slugs and round off to the nearest hundredths.
Constants:
g=9.8066 m/s² or 32.174 ft/s²
T at sea level = 288 K or 519 °R
R for air: 287.08 Nm/Kg-K or 53.342 lbf-
ft/lbm-°R
a = -0.00651 K/m or -0.003566 °R/ft
