Question

If a vacuum gau ge reads 9.62 psi, it means that: a. the very highest column of mercury it could support would be 19.58 inches. b. the absolute pressure is exactly 5.08 psia. c. the pressure is 9.62 below atmospheric pressure -, d, none of the above e. all of the above

Answer 1

Answer:All of the above

Step-by-step explanation:

9.62 psi means 497.49 mm of Hg pressure

for (a)19.58 inches is equals to 497.49 mm of Hg

(b)atmospheric pressure is 14.69 psi

vaccum gauge is 9.62psi

absolute pressure is=14.69-9.62=5.07

(c)vaccum means air is sucked and there is negative pressure so it tells about below atmospheric pressure.

thus all are correct
