a pressure gage and a manometer are connected to a compressed air tank to measure its pressure. if the reading on the pressure gage is 11 kpa, determine the distance h between the two fluid levels of the water filled manometer. assume the density of water is 1000 kg/m3 and the atmospheric pressure is 101 kpa.

What difference(s) did you notice using a pneumatic circuit over hydraulic circuit.explain why the pneumatic piston stumbles when it hits an obstacle.

The temperature of air decreases as it is compressed by an adiabatic compressor. a)- true b)- false

Air is to be cooled in the evaporator section of a refrigerator by passing it over a bank of 0.8-cm-outer-diameter and 0.4-m-long tubes inside which the refrigerant is evaporating at -20°c. air approaches the tube bank in the normal direction at 0°c and 1 atm with a mean velocity of 4 m/s. the tubes are arranged in-line with longitudinal and transverse pitches of sl- st 1.5 cm. there are 30 rows in the flow direction with 15 tubes in each row. determine (a) the refrigeration capacity of this system and (b) pressure drop across the tube bank. evaluate the air properties at an assumed mean temperature of -5°c and 1 atm. is this a good assumption?
