Answer:
Explanation:
1 psi = 6894.76 Pa
P = 184 psi = 12.686 x 10⁵ Pa .
Temperature T = 95⁰F = 35⁰C= 308 K
volume V = 18 ft³ = 18 x 0.0283168 m³
= .51 m³
From the gas law
PV/RT = n where n is mole of gas
= 12.686 x 10⁵ x .51 / 8.31 x 308
= 252.78 gm mole
= 252.78 x 32 gm
= 8.08896 kg
= 2.20462 x 8.08896 lb
= 17.833 lb
= 17.833 / 32 lbf
= .5573 lbf
weight of tank = 150 lbf
Total weight = 150 + .5573
= 150.5573 lbf .
