What is wrong with a pressure tank that turns on and off every 2-3 seconds any time water is run?

The pressure tank is not turning on and off,the pump is. There should be an air fitting on the tank so you can add more air to act as a 'spring' to extend time between pump runs. If you don't know how to add the air. ask someone or hire a handyman.

Why is your well pump cycling every twenty seconds when in use only?
The pressure tank is full of water and has no air charge.
What does water evaporate from?
Water evaporates from heat or pressure and turns into water vapor.
Why does my pressure drop when your well pump turns on?
You have air getting into the water somewhere, go down and make sure every hose and fitting is tight.
What is the trick behind making water to ice in 5 seconds?
There is not a specific trick that turns water to ice in 5 seconds. The temperature around the water and ice is what determines how fast the water will freeze.
How does a pre-pressurized tank work?
The air pressure surrounding the bladder forces the water out . When pressure decreases to a fixed point, the pump turns on and raises the amount of water and pressure.
At what temperature does a liquid turn into gas?
the point at which a liquid turns into a gas depends on the atmospheric pressure and the liquid water turns to gas at 100 degrees C at 1atm of pressure
What temperature does a liquid turn into a gas?
the point at which a liquid turns into a gas depends on the atmospheric pressure and the liquid water turns to gas at 100 degrees C at 1atm of pressure
How does pressure and pipe diameter relate to water velocity?
The smaller the pipe and the more turns, the more resistance to the flow of water.
How do you use a water pressure pump?
There are many different ways to use a 'water pressure pump' . Any water pump will build up pressure, this is the basic principle of well pumps, and similar. Most are 'used' by a pressure switch which turns the pump on when pressure decreases to a certain point.
How water turns into vapor at normal temp?
A large DECREASE in the surface pressure will result in water turning to water vapor at room temperature.
If you run water in your house and it has good pressure for a few seconds then pressure goes away what would be the cause?
Ferrous metal piping
What is the hottest point water can be boiled to?
100 degrees Celsius then it turns to gas -Provided that the pressure is normal atmospheric pressure(1 Atmosphere).
