A slow leak develops in an inner tube (volume, 0.5 ft3, temperature, 600F), wherein it takes 4 hours for the pressure to decrease from 30 to 25 psig. The mass flow rate of air per second under the conditions is given by 0.68pA/(RT)0.5, where the units are in AES. Calculate the area of the hole in the tube.
