Chapter 13: Q23PE (page 470)
Convert an absolute pressure of 7 x 105 N/M2 to gauge pressure in lb/in2 (This value was stated to be just less than 90.0 lb/in2 in Example 13.9. Is it?)
Short Answer
Pressure in terms of lb/in2 is 86.95 lb/in2.

Question: How large an expansion gap should be left between steel railroad rails if they may reach a maximum temperature 35.0ºC greater than when they were laid? Their original length is 10.0 m.
Question: If you add boiling water to a cup at room temperature, what would you expect the final equilibrium temperature of the unit to be? You will need to include the surroundings as part of the system. Consider the zeroth law of thermodynamics.
When a cold alcohol thermometer is placed in a hot liquid, the column of alcohol goes down slightly before going up. Explain why?
Question:Air in human lungs has a temperature of 37.0ºC and a saturation vapor density of 44.0 g/m3. (a) If 2.00 L of air is exhaled and very dry air inhaled, what is the maximum loss of water vapor by the person? (b) Calculate the partial pressure of water vapor having this density, and compare it with the vapor pressure of 6.31×103 N/m2.
