QUESTION:
The gas tank of a car is filled with a nozzle that discharges gasoline at a constant flow rate. Based on unit considerations of quantities,obtain a relation for the filling time in terms of the volume V of the tank (in L) and the discharge rate of gasoline V (in L/s).
ANSWER:
Step 1 of 3
A gas tank is being filled with gasoline at specified flow rate. Based on unit consideration alone, a relation is to be obtained for the filling time.In this problem we will Assume that gasoline is an incompressible substance and the flow rate is constant.
