typically around $20-$30 depending on where you get it done, just ask around for the best price. also check the local fire station, a lot of times they know where to get it done cheap since they have to get tanks hydroed all the time
yes, it is.
Firstly, tanks rarely provide oxygen - they usually provide simple air or other breathable gas. Pure oxygen would kill you if you breathed it deeper than about 30 feet.Second, the average scuba tank holds the equivalent of about 80 cubic feet of gas under pressure. At the surface that would be enough to breathe off for about three hours for an everage person. But the deeper you go, the faster you consume gas because you breathe it under greater pressure.
Because compressing a gas increases its temperature. The increase in temperature increases the pressure further. By cooling the tank in water the tank can be filled with more air, it's also safer than having a very hot super high pressure tank at the end of the fill.
No it is not,. They use a membrane system to produce and mix the air before that they used to partial fill and and roll the tanks on the floor to get them to blend.
One of the many things Jacques Cousteau is famous for is the creation of scuba gear. Scuba stands for : Self Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus.
Depends on the size of the tank.

Different scuba gear types weigh different amounts. The oxygen tank is the heavy part of the scuba diving gear.
about 32 pounds empty
The numbers on a scuba tank reveal 3 things. Serial no. of the tank. Type metal. and the current hydro date.
From a regulator attached to a scuba tank.
The empty weight of a 100 cubic foot steel SCUBA tank is approximately 33lbs.
I would think so, because there are two of them mixed together. Air in a scuba tank or anywhere else should be heterogeneous. A scuba tank filled with either oxygen or nitrogen would be homogeneous.
the silly answer is you can store anything in a scuba tank that you can get in it!!. BUTthe serious answer is scuba tank were designed for compressed air and nothing else... using a scuba tank for natural gas is like driving around with a bomb in your car!!, the valves and collars of the bottles are not strong enough if there was a crash
No.
its the scuba tank on the swimming guys back.
