Question

31. The force exerted on the side of a fuel tank measuring 12 X 24 inches, when the tank 32. A rectangular fuel tank whose dimensions are 60 inches long, 20 inches wide, and 12 33. A brake master cylinder having a bore of 1.5 and a stroke of 6 inches displaces 34. A 4-cylinder aircraft engine has a bore of 3.78 inches and a stroke of 5.5 inches. Its is pressure tested to 8 psi, ispounds. inches deep contains cubic inches of fluid when the piston travels its full stroke. total piston displacement is cubic inches. cubic inches and will hold U.S. gallons.

Answer 1

This question is based on concepts of following:

Pressure

Volume of cube

Piston displacement volume

The detailed solution is described below.

This question is based on concepts of following: Pressure Volume of cube Piston displacement volume The detailed solution is described below. Let us go to basis first Force = P * A = 8 psi * (12 times 24) inches = 2304 pounds Cubic inches = l * w * d = 60 * 20 * 12 = 14400 cubic inches US gallons = Cubic inches * 0.004329 = 62.337 US gallons Displaced cubic inches of fluid = pi/4 d^2 L = 3.14/4 * (1.5)^2 * 6 = 10.5975 cubic inches Total displacement = 4* pi/4 d^2 L = 4* pi/4 * (3.78)^2 * 5.5 = 246.76 cubic inches
