WHEN THE BAROMETRIC PRESSURE IS 14.9LBS\IN AND THE PRESSURE GAGE ON A TIRE READS 34.6LBS\IN WHAT IS THE ABSOLUTE PRESSURE INSIDE THE TIRE
To calculate the absolute pressure inside the tire, you need to add the barometric pressure to the pressure gauge reading.
In this case, the barometric pressure is 14.9 lbs/in² and the pressure gauge reading is 34.6 lbs/in².
To get the absolute pressure inside the tire, you add these two values together:
Absolute Pressure = Barometric Pressure + Pressure Gauge Reading
Absolute Pressure = 14.9 lbs/in² + 34.6 lbs/in²
Absolute Pressure = 49.5 lbs/in²
Therefore, the absolute pressure inside the tire is 49.5 lbs/in².
To find the absolute pressure inside the tire, you need to add the atmospheric pressure (barometric pressure) to the gauge pressure (pressure reading on the tire gauge).
Absolute pressure = Barometric pressure + Gauge pressure
Given:
Barometric pressure = 14.9 lbs/in²
Gauge pressure = 34.6 lbs/in²
Using the formula, we can calculate the absolute pressure:
Absolute pressure = 14.9 lbs/in² + 34.6 lbs/in²
Absolute pressure = 49.5 lbs/in²
Therefore, the absolute pressure inside the tire is 49.5 lbs/in².
