How much space would 10 pounds of air fill?
The answer would depend on the altitude (or depth) of the air you're measuring. Because air can be compressed, the weight of the atmosphere (or atmosphere plus water if it is submerged) on top of the air you're measuring determines the volume, or space, the air takes up. The more the weight, the smaller the space the compressed air would take up. Temperature is also a factor as air becomes denser and compresses (the molecules become more tightly packed) as it gets colder.
What is squeezed air called?
compressed air
Why do clouds disappear with high air pressure?
In a high pressure system air sinks and is compressed. As the air is compressed it heats up, which can cause clouds to evaporate.
What would happen if all of Earths compressed air was released at once?
In short, not very much. Firstly, most compressed air is produced on an as-needed basis. Secondly, there is not very much compressed air in any one given location. Now, assuming you were to collect it all up and release it from the same point, it would release about 5% of the energy of a Category 1 Hurricane or winds of 33mph over a radius of 40 miles.
Do gas stations offer compressed air cans at inexpensive rates?
Gas stations that have a store usually sell compressed air cans for customers and some simple garages may have their preferred brand of compressed air for sale out of their own stock if you ask.
How much air in a cylinder?

What has compressed air in it?
a tire has compressed air, vacuum, balloon, inhaler and so much more can u find 15 in your house that have compressed air
What is the measurement of the compressed air in a tire?
In the US we use PSI, (Pounds Per Square Inch).
How much compressed air does it take to kill?
It is a common rumor that compressed air can kill a person. There is a chance, although not much, that an air bubble can form in the veins if a compressor is used to blow air directly into the skin.
Which occurs when air is compressed A. Air Temp rises and air molecules move faster B. Air temp decreases C. Air temp decreases and air molecules move faster D. Air molecules move slower?
A. air temperature rises and air molecules move faster
Why do the spine cracks when you move?
The pockets of air are being compressed making a popping noise.
What makes a veichile that has no motor move?
wind/hill/compressed air or lots of gear
Can compressed air be used to clean out plugged radiator?
depends on how much air you have
Compressed air dryers are different then the regular dryer in what way?
Compressed air dryers are different that regular dryers in the sense that the regular dryers use a type of gas. Compressed air is much safer for the environment.
If air is compressed and cooled sufficiently it becomes a substance?
If air is compressed and cooled, the temperature of the air will become negative. Now depending on how much humidity there is in that air being compressed we might get some water droplets as it is being cooled. Carbon dioxide when compressed and cooled we get dry ice.
What does PSI stand for on a tire?
That is Pounds per square inch. The amount of compressed air to inflate the tire
