(c) What is the absolute pressure of the compressed air? 3 Your response differs from the correct answer by more than 10%. Double check your calculations. Pa (d) What is the volume of the compressed air? 4
Fluid Pressure
The term fluid pressure is coined as, the measurement of the force per unit area of a given surface of a closed container. It is a branch of physics that helps to study the properties of fluid under various conditions of force.
Gauge Pressure
Pressure is the physical force acting per unit area on a body; the applied force is perpendicular to the surface of the object per unit area. The air around us at sea level exerts a pressure (atmospheric pressure) of about 14.7 psi but this doesn’t seem to bother anyone as the bodily fluids are constantly pushing outwards with the same force but if one swims down into the ocean a few feet below the surface one can notice the difference, there is increased pressure on the eardrum, this is due to an increase in hydrostatic pressure.

Your response differs from the correct answer by more than 10%. Double check your calculations. Pa
(d) What is the volume of the compressed air?
4
Your response is within 10% of the correct value. This may be due to roundoff error, or you could have a mistake in your
calculation. Carry out all intermediate results to at least four-digit accuracy to minimize roundoff error. mi
(e) What is the temperature of the compressed air?
5
K
(f) What is the increase in internal energy of the gas during the compression?

![Air (a diatomic ideal gas) at 25.0°C and atmospheric pressure is drawn into a bicycle pump (see figure below) that has a cylinder
with an inner diameter of 2.50 cm and length 53.5 cm. The downstroke adiabatically compresses the air, which reaches a gauge
pressure of 8.00 x 10° Pa before entering the tire. We wish to investigate the temperature increase of the pump.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fb733f5a7-d7f3-4d22-a684-3dce8591d10f%2Fee9b20bb-cccb-4271-94b7-22f6deefc184%2Fbugls1_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
