Answer:
P_2 = 62.69 psi
Explanation:
given,
P₁ = 70 psia T₁ = 55° F = (55 + 459.67) R
P₂ = ? T₂ = 115° F = (115 + 459.67) R
we know,
p = ρ RT
ρ is the density which is constant
R is also constant
now,
[tex]\dfrac{P_2}{P_1} =\dfrac{T_2}{T_1}[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{P_2}{70} =\dfrac{55+459.67}{115+459.67}[/tex]
P_2 = 62.69 psi
Hence, the increase in Pressure is equal to P_2 = 62.69 psi
