Determine the mass of the relief valve in lbm pounds mass


A spring is attached to the top of the relief valve which (in its closed state) provides 50lbf to the valve. The diameter of the valve is 6 inches and is designed to open when the gauge pressure inside the chamber is 20psig. Determine the mass of the relief valve in lbm (pounds mass). Draw a free body diagram of relief showing all forces involved.
