A typical barometer measures the pressure of the location at where you're at. Once it displays the pressure, you can determine the height using the hydrostatic pressure. The equation is written below:

P = ρgh,
where 
ρ is the density of air
g is the acceleration due to gravity
h is the height

Therefore, if the pressure increases, then the height also increases.

In Paul Hewitt's book, he poses this question: "If the forces that act on a bullet and the recoiling gun from which it is fired
Sauron [17]
They have different accelerations because of their masses. According to Newton's Second Law, an objects acceleration is inversely proportional to its mass. Therefore the object with the larger mass, in this case the gun, will have a smaller acceleration. In the same way, the less massive object, being the bullet, will have a higher acceleration.

Hope this helps :)

Hey! So referring to the data the thing we can clearly see is that in a vacuum, everything, regardless of its mass, falls at the same speed.

Acceleration is often confused with speed, or velocity, but the difference is, acceleration by definition is the rate of which an object falls with respect to its mass and time.

Every single thing in the world falls at the same acceleration, this is because of gravity. The difference is the speed of which it falls. In space, there is not any gravity, and so, the objects are able to fall at the same speed regardless of their mass.

Which of the following is the equation for calculating daily caloric needs? A. BMR calories + Digestion calories B. BMR calories
labwork [276]

Explanation:

To determine your total daily calorie needs, multiply your BMR by the appropriate activity factor, as follows: If you are sedentary (little or no exercise) : Calorie-Calculation = BMR x 1.2. If you are lightly active (light exercise/sports 1-3 days/week) : Calorie-Calculation = BMR x 1.375.

The height difference is found by
\delta H=400sin(5 \°)=34.86m
Then the change in potential energy is
E=mgh=(80.0kg)(9.8 \frac{kgm}{s^2})(34.86)= 27332J
