4) (25 points) An air tank has a volume of 2m3, In the beginning the air pressure in the tank is 150kPa. Then comprssed air is continuously pumped through a hose into the tank at a volumetric flow rate Q=2 m3/min, where is the density of air in the tank in kg/m3. As the air enters the tank, its temperature is 30C, and the gas constant for air is 287J/(kgK). a) (5 points) Please determine the initial density of the air within the tank (Hint: =P/RT, where R is the gas constant, for air R=0.0298.314=287J/(kgK)). b) (5 points) Please write down the continuity equation, and determine if the system has local change and/or convective change. c) ( 15 points) Please determine the pressure in the tank after 10 minutes
