ENGINEERING MATHEMATICS - EXAMPLE 8.2 : In the US (United States), one barrel is equal to 42 US gallons and equivalent to 0.15898 cubic metres. One British barrel is equal to 36 Imperial gallons and equivalent to 0.163659 cubic metres. If an oil refinery in England sells 42 Imperial gallons of crude oil to a company in US, how much US gallons of crude oils has been sold?

Answer Posted / kangchuentat

ENGINEERING MATHEMATICS - ANSWER 8.2 : Volume of crude oil sold in US = 42 x 42 (US gallons) / 0.15898 (cubic metres) x 0.163659 (cubic metres) / 36 (Imperial gallons) = 50.4421 US gallons.

X is a solid having a white colour at room temperature. It has a density about 2g/cc. Although it has melting point near 325 degree Celsius, its properties start degrading above 260 degree Celsius. The coefficient of friction is very low about 0.1. It has very good dielectric properties especially at higher radio frequencies. It has a very high bulk resistivity. It is chemically inert. It is also resistant to van der Waals force. It is hydrophobic as well as lipophobic. Creep or ‘Cold Flow’ has been observed in X.
