Volume of gasoline increases more for given temperature

Reference no: EM13675289

Early in the morning, when the temperature is 5.0° C, gasoline is pumped into a car's 41 L steel gas tank until it is full to the top. Later in the day the temperature rises to 27° C. Since the volume of gasoline increases more for a given temperature increase than the volume of the steel tank, gasoline will spill out of the tank. How much gasoline spills out in this case?

What is the dielectric constant of that dielectric : A 1.7nF parallel-plate capacitor has an air gap among its plates. Its capacitance increases by 3.0nF when the gap is full by a dielectric. What is the dielectric constant of that dielectric?

Pipe is full with helium at the same temperature : A certain organ pipe, open at both ends, produces a fundamental frequency of 297Hz in air. If the pipe is full with helium at the same temperature, what fundamental frequency f He will it produce? Take the molar mass of air to be 28.8g/mol and the mo..

Two small metallic spheres-how long are the strings : Two small metallic spheres, each of mass m = 0.192 g, are suspended as pendulums by light strings of length L as shown in the figure below. The spheres are given the same electric charge of 7.6 nC, and they come to equilibrium when every string is at..

Is the force exerted on roof in upward or downward direction : Through a thunderstorm, winds with a speed of 47.0 m/s blow across a flat roof with an area of 785 m2. Is the force exerted on the roof in the upward or downward direction?

Roughly estimate the average density of the star : Rapid changes that are sometimes observed in stars might indicate that dynamical processes are taking place. From the timescales of such changes-usually oscillations with a characteristic period - we may roughly estimate the average density of the st..

Discover the speed of blood flow within the plaque region : The build-up of plaque on the walls of an artery might decrease its diameter from 1.1 cm to 0.71 cm. The speed of blood flow was 14 cm/s before reaching the region of plaque build up. Discover the speed of blood flow within the plaque region.

Charge is line connecting of net force : A charge, Q2 = -7.00x10-6 C, is 11.00 cm to the right of charge Q1 = 6.00x10-6 C. Where can a third charge are placed, along the line connecting Q1 and Q2, such that it experiences no net force (other than ±?)?
