Pneumatic nail drivers used in construction require 0.02 ft3 of air at 100 psia and 1 Btu of energy to drive a single nail. You have been assigned the task of designing a compressed-air storage tank with enough capacity to drive 500 nails. The pressure in this tank cannot exceed 500 psia, and the temperature cannot exceed that normally found at a construction site. What is the maximum pressure to be used in the tank and what is the tank’s volume?
