The minimum necessary height of the IV bag above the position of the needle is 0.37 m.

<h3>Minimum necessary height</h3>

The minimum necessary height of the IV bag above the position of the needle is calculated as follows;

P = ρgh

where;

  • ρ is density = 1.308 kg/L = 1308 kg/m³
  • g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²
  • p is pressure = 35.7 mmHg = 4759.609 Pa
  • h is height, (m) = ?

Substitute the given parameters and solve for minimum height

h = P/ρg

h = (4759.609) / (9.8 x 1308)

h = 0.37 m

Thus, the minimum necessary height of the IV bag above the position of the needle is 0.37 m.

Answer:

The pressure is  P_2  =  4.25 \ a.t.m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The initial pressure is P_1  =  11.2\ a.t.m

   The  temperature is  T_1 =   299 \ K

   

Let the first volume be  V_1 Then the final volume will be  2 V_1

 Generally for a diatomic  gas

           P_1 V_1 ^r  =  P_2  V_2  ^r

Here r is the radius of the molecules which is  mathematically represented as

    r =  \frac{C_p}{C_v}

Where C_p \  and\   C_v are the molar specific heat of a gas at constant pressure and  the molar specific heat of a gas at constant volume with values

     C_p=7 \  and\   C_v=5

=>   r =  \frac{7}{5}

=>  11.2*( V_1 ^{\frac{7}{5} } ) =  P_2  *  (2 V_1 ^{\frac{7}{5} } )

=>   P_2  =  [\frac{1}{2} ]^{\frac{7}{5} } * 11.2

=>  P_2  =  4.25 \ a.t.m
