that could give you the weight to calculate the mass while the plane is in level flight because while in level flight the plane has no weight. go back to the ice cube in the glass of water... exact same principle. tell me how the ice cube is weightless. oh... but thats different....... no it isnt. .

well that might be true if steam always rises but that doesnt always happen and even when it does it usually doesnt go very high so it must be gravitationally bound to the earth after all just like the water it came from. but now that you mention it water vapor has mass but also has no measurable weight since it is floating throughout most of the atmosphere. ok so if water has no weight how exactly is it that it supports a 120000 ton aircraft carrier i dont recall water vapor supporting any type of ship never mind an aircraft carrier. if it could there would be no reason for dry-dock. now water itself is a liquid while vapor is a gas you do know that right you might look up the theory/definition of bouyancy. wait..... dont do that youll only add to your own confusion. i know what it means do you -- if at first you dont succeed youre not cut out for skydiving .

how far away does one have to get from earth to be effectively weightless space shuttle flies at about 120 miles or so up. that far enough nope but at that orbital distance the vehicle is effectively falling toward earth in a curve ellipse that never reaches earth; or you could say that centrifugal force balances gravity either way the shuttle and everything in it is effectively weightless it is however not massless as bone-head would have us believe .

now i realize that this is just an argument based on semantics but max taught me well. yep - and really clarifies your thinking on the matter. again youre thinking of a gas as a bunch of stationary molocules and the space between the molocules shouldnt count when calculating its volume. in reality unless a gas is at absolute zero its molocules are constantly in motion and by definition the volume of said gas is the volume of the container thats holding it. i can have the same amount of gas in a 20cu.in. container or a 2 cu.in. container. it will just be at a higher pressure in the smaller container. exactly iow the same volume of gas in different sized containers. nope - the same amount mass or moles of gas - at different volumes and therefore different pressures and/or temperatures. not true. a standard cubic foot of gas is a standard cubic foot of gas any way that you want to look at it. yes - but you seem to feel that scf is a measure of volume physical space ocupied when it isnt - its a measure of mass - the amount of gas that will occupy a cubic foot at a specific temperature and pressure. its not a simple one-dimensional measurement. volume is. knowing the type of gas if given the scf you can calculate the number of molocules of that gas. you cant do that with a volume measurement because again its a single component and varies based on the other two properties pressure and temperature of a gas. no it is just you stuck on volume being a measure of size and that is simply not true. look up the definition already. alrighty.... from a google search define volume... first hit the amount of 3-dimensional space occupied by an object; the gas expanded to twice its original volume volume also called capacity is a quantification of how much space an object occupies the amount of space taken up by a substance or object volume of a material is a quantity not a size. nope. i have a bottle of gas 2cu.ft. in size. how much gas do i have its impossible to tell because here we go again... full freaking circle a gas will expand to fill its container. the volume of that gas is 2cu.ft. oh it may be 250 scf worth of gas but i didnt tell you that because that would be measuring its quantity... i measured its volume see definition above - the amount of 3d space occupied by an object or in this case a substance. a standard cubic foot is a measurement of the amount or mass of a given gas at stp. well as indicated earlier scf and stp are different standards scf at 60f and stp at 32f but aside from that now youre finally correct. because of this the space between them no longer has any meaning sure it does - it defines the volume. only for a container. which is exactly what we were originally talking about.... the container being the cylinder of an engine. you just agreed with myself and max when we told you two days ago that you were incorrect. back then you claimed that the volume of air in the cylinder was dependent on the amount of air that got into the cylinder. sigh no... the amount of gas does not change - its volume is certainl y changing inversely proportional to its pressure. textbook boyles law... then why is your argon cylinder sized in cf and not only that but at 80cf. because scf is not just a measure of volume. its a hybrid measurement made up of three component measurements those being volume temperature and pressure. in other words its a measure of mass. then why is it rated at that level here is a hint the volume of the cylinder and the gas stored in it dont have to be and seldom are the same. again - scf is not a measure of volume alone. when that 80cu.ft. of gas is stored in a .59cu.ft. tank its volume is .59cu.ft. its mass is 80scf bottom line a measure of volume is just that - a measure of the physical space that matter occupies at the time of measure. w r o n g but now i see where your point is comming from. you are hung up on the definition of volume and in many scientific terms that is the only definition given such as in definition 3 in the link below. oh so im wrong because im using the scientific term sorry but were talking about science here... the problem and the point of our disagreement is that it is not the only definition of volume and if you look at definition 4 you will see that it definition 4 is a laymans use of the word volume to describe damn-near anything. it has absolutely nothing to do with this discussion in the relation to a given gass temperature pressure mass and physical space occupied at those various measurements. heck if we use definition #5 now were talking about decibels. is also a quantity or amount which is the reason why your argon tank is rated in cf and not moles or any other units because cf is both easy for most of us to understand and gives a more realistic description on the volume of gas

hehehehehe yea a comment on my logic from the person who says that a 2cf container has to somehow contain 80cf of gas at any pressure and doesnt know the difference between mass and weight. sorry buddy but with your apparent math and scientific skills to run and hide after the crap in your last post is the wisest move that you could make right now. perhaps you are not quite so dumb after all bye - this from someone who has trouble with 3% / 2% = 150% and this from the self proclaimed trans expert who doesnt even know the fluid flow of a tc. -- if at first you dont succeed youre not cut out for skydiving .
