Question
Gauge pressure is the pressure measured
a. with respect to the atmospheric pressure 1,000 km above sea level
b. with respect to the atmospheric pressure
c. 1.00 m below the water surface
d. with respect to vacuum
To obtain gauge pressure from absolute pressure,
a. one makes it equal to zero
b. one subtracts the atmospheric pressure from the absolute pressure
c. one equates it to the absolute pressure
d. one adds it to the atmospheric pressure to the absolute pressure
Which of the following is not a correct atmospheric pressure?
a. 10,100 Pa
b. 14.7 psi (pound per square inch)
c. 10,300 kg-force/m^2
d. 1 atm
Explanation / Answer
Remember
Absolute pressure = Atmospheric pressure + Gauge Pressure
Q1.
Gauge pressure is measured w.r.t to Vaccum
Correct option is D
Q2
From above equation
G.P = A.P - Patm
Correct option is B.
Q3.
Patm = 1 atm = 1.013*10^5 Pa = 1.013*10^5 N/m^2 = 14.7 psi
So Option A and C are not correct. (If multiplal choices are correct)
other check the value given in Pa, it should be 101000 Pa, then correct option will be C
