Why we don't use high pressure in pneumatics?
one reason air is much harder to control the heat and air has a lot of water in it and a hydraulic system dose not need water in the hydraulic oil. There is no way at the high pressure that a hydraulic system has to work at,it would not be possible to control the heat.
Can you see the difference between a wet and a dry standpipe system?
Yes you can. A dry standpipe system has an air pressure and a water gauge the air pressure gauge is normally found on the top or the (pressure side) the water gauge is normally located on the bottom under the air pressure gauge or the (supply side)
The water in a drinking straw does not drip out when you press te top of the straw with your thumb or finger tip?
It's a matter of air pressure that acts on the water. When the straw is uncovered, there are two forces acting on the water inside. There is gravity, pulling the water down, and air pressure. The pressure is about the same on both ends of the straw, but on the top of the straw, the pressure pushes the water downward, and on the bottom of the straw, the pressure pushes upward. Both of the pressures are the same, so the net force is just the force of gravity pulling the water down and out of the straw. When you cover the top of the straw, you block the air from pushing down on the water. In this case, the only forces on the water are the air pressure pushing up, and gravity pulling down. However, the air pressure is a greater force than gravity, and keeps the water in the straw despite gravity's pull.
What will cause low water pressure on a residential house with a well?
There are many cause of this, but the primary reasons are in the pressure tank. The tank MUST have residual air pressure of around 27 psi to drive the water system. To analyse further I need to know what kind of tank you have and what air pressure is in it when the water ceases to flow. I need to know what pressure your pump starts and if the tank feels heavy (full of water) when the pressure is low.
How much air pressure can copper pipe hold?
2000 Psi
How much air pressure equals 120 psi of water?
Pressure doesn't change when you change substance, 120 PSI in water equals 120 PSI in air.
How does mountains and water effect air pressure and temperature?
more mountains + more air equals more pressure.... its like sitting on a bag of air
How much water vapor is needed to saturate the air?
This is called the relative humidity. It changes due to evaporation and precipitation, and warm air can hold more water than cooler air.
Why did the water rush into the erlenmeyer flask when it was submerged in the cold water?
1. When the flask was placed into the cold water, the colder air molecules in the flask move slower, putting out less pressure. With the decrease in air pressure inside the flask, the now greater pressure outside pushes water into the flask until the pressure inside equals the pressure outside.
Why does water have to do with air pressure?
In a well system, water is propelled by air pressure.
How much pressure should my water tank bladder have?
The water pressure depends on the residual air pressure in the tank. Normally it should be between 30 -50-psi. Tank air pressure is important, it should be about 27-29 when water is nearly empty.
High pressure equals high altitude equals warm air?
Exactly!
When does water boil much less than 100?
When the pressure is reduced. Water only boils at 100 degrees Celsius when the air pressure is one atmosphere. So up a mountain, where the air pressure is lowered, water boils at a lower temperature.
How much pressure is in 328 feet of water?
If it is fresh water, and the surface is at sea level, then the pressure at the surface is 14.69 psi. As you submerge, then the pressure from the weight of the water above you is added to the air pressure above the water. For each foot that you descend, the water pressure will increase by 0.4331 psi, so at 328 feet deep, the water pressure is 142.0568 psi. Add the 14.69 psi air pressure to get 156.7468 psi.
How much air is in hot water Is there more air in cold water under the same pressure of course?
Colder water can hold more oxygen than warmer water.
Why is water pressure stronger than air pressure?
Think of it this way, if you had a plastic bottle filled with water and you poked a hole in the side, would water squirt out or would air squirt in? If air squirted in, then the air pressure would have to be higher. But since we know that the water would squirt out, we know that the water's pressure must be stronger. Of course, this is under normal conditions. If you pumped the air pressure up enough, then the air pressure may become stronger than standard water pressure. So actually, water pressure is generally stronger than air pressure.
How much air pressure will a hot water tank hold?
Most are rated for 125 psi.
