P1V1 = P2V2
204*12 = 34*V2
find V2, the volume of the tank, then time = volume/rate
but the volume is the volume at 1 atm, which will be much larger than the tank's volume. So you will need to do a similar calculation with P2 = 1
Please could a good heated person solve this physics questions for me.
Thank you.
A scuba tank when full hold 12L of air at 204 atm. Assume an empty tank contains air at 34 atm and is connected to air compressor at the sea level. The air compressor intakes air from the atmosphere , compresses it and then inputs this High pressure in to the scuba tank. If the average flow rate of the air from the atmosphere into the intake port of the air compressor is 290 L/ min, how long will it take to charge the scuba tank? Temperature remains the same as the sorroundings?
