What else can I help you with?
Why on Labels on cylinders of compressed gases state the highest temperature to which the cylinder may be exposed give a reason for this warning?
The highest temperature warning is because as gasses heat they expand and take up more space. If a container gets too hot the gasses reach a point where their volume is too much for the container and the metal can not longer retain its shape, thus causing the cylinder to burst (typically very violently).
What is the difference in ability of water and air to be compressed?
Air is much easier to compress compared to water because air is a compressible gas, while water is an incompressible liquid. This means that when pressure is applied, air molecules can be compressed closer together, whereas water molecules are already closely packed and cannot be compressed to the same extent.
How much does a xl50 cylinder weigh full of oxygen?
An XL50 oxygen cylinder weighs approximately 16 pounds when full.
How much oxygen does a full cylinder contain?
A standard oxygen cylinder contains around 6,000 liters of oxygen when full.
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.
How much air in a cylinder?
Depends on the size of the cylinder, if the air is compressed or not and if it is compressed, to how much psi.
How much Thrust is generated in a solid fuel rocket?
The thrust generated by a solid fuel rocket varies widely depending on its design, size, and the specific type of propellant used. Typically, solid rocket motors can produce thrust ranging from a few thousand pounds to several million pounds. For example, the Space Shuttle's Solid Rocket Boosters generated about 2.7 million pounds of thrust each at launch. The thrust can be calculated using the formula ( F = \dot{m} \cdot v_e ), where ( F ) is thrust, ( \dot{m} ) is the mass flow rate of the propellant, and ( v_e ) is the effective exhaust velocity.
As a gas is compressed in a cylinder does its volume decrease?
"Force the substance into a smaller volume" is pretty much the definition of "compress".
How much pressure will compressed CO2 create when released in an air cylinder?
Whatever amount of pressure was used to compress the CO2 originally, can be reached (or nearly reached) when it is released into an air cylinder.
What is thrust capacity?
Thrust Capacity is how much thrust it can take :D
How much thrust does the space shuttle require to lift off?
about 7.2 million pounds of thrust (Solid Rocket Boosters and Main Engines combined)
How much is mount Everest rising 2.5 per year?
Every year the mountain grows taller by 4mm as a result of the upward thrust generated by two opposing tectonic plates.
How much thrust does a Saturn 5 rocket produce?
A Saturn V rocket could produce up to 7.5 million pounds of thrust at liftoff, making it one of the most powerful rockets ever built. This immense thrust was generated by the five massive F-1 engines in the first stage of the rocket.
How much thrust does an airplane give?
The amount of thrust depends on the power of the engine
By how much is the spring compressed?
The spring is compressed by 5 centimeters.
What is multistage air compressor?
These are compressors with more than one cylinder, usually of different sizes. The first cylinder takes in air at normal pressure and compresses it some. Then it releases the slightly compressed air to the second cylinder which takes it in and compresses it more. This repeats with each following cylinder. You can get much higher pressures this way than is practical with just one cylinder.
How can friction be damaging?
too much heat generated, or in the case of a motor, if a small shaving gets rubbed against the inside of the motor (cylinder), thecylinder will be damaged.
