A gauge is attached to a pressurized nitrogen tank reads a gauge pressure of 28 in of mercury. If atmospheric pressure is 14.4 psia, what is the absolute pressure in the tank

The absolute pressure is 28.15 psi.

Explanation:

Gauge pressure = 28 inch of Mercury

Absolute pressure, Po = 14.4 psi

The absolute pressure is the sum of the gauge pressure and the absolute pressure.  

gauge pressure = 28 inch = 0.7112 m of Mercury

= 0.7112 x 13.6 x 1000 x 9.8 = 94788.736 Pa

= 13.75 psi

The absolute pressure is

P = 14.4 + 13.75 = 28.15 psi

answer: the rock sample is a sedimentary rock.

explanation:

it is given that:

mass of rock sample, m = 2.7 g

volume of rock sample,

so, density of rock sample will be

since, the density of rock sample is . hence, the rock sample is a sedimentary rock, whose densities varies between .
