Question

(a) A rectangular gasoline tank can hold 41.0 kg of gasoline when full. What is the depth(m) of the tank if it is 0.400 m wide by 0.900 m long?
(b) What is the volume(gal) of the tank? (It is suitable for a passenger car.)

Answer 1

V =m /ρ =41/750 = 0.055 m³ =14.53 gallons
V=L•W•D= >
D=V/L•W = 0.055/0.4•0.9 =0.15 m
