Answer:

The carriage has the energy, W = 2469.6 J

Explanation:

Given data,

The height of the hill, h = 21 m

The carriage with the baby weighs, m = 12 kg

The energy possessed by the body due to its position is the potential energy,

                                      <em>W = P.E = mgh joules</em>

Substituting the values,

                                       W = 12 x 9.8 x 21

                                            = 2469.6 J

Hence, the carriage has the energy, W = 2469.6 J

The barometric pressure at sea level is 30 in of mercury when that on a mountain top is 29 in. If the specific weight of air is
stealth61 [152]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to pressure, depending on the product between the density of the fluid, the gravity and the depth / height at which it is located.

For mercury, density, gravity and height are defined as

\rho_m = 846lb/ft^3

g = 32.17405ft/s^2

h_1 = 1in = \frac{1}{12} ft

For the air the defined properties would be

\rho_a = 0.0075lb/ft^3

g = 32.17405ft/s^2

h_2 = ?

We have for equilibrium that

\text{Pressure change in Air}=\text{Pressure change in Mercury}

\rho_m g h_1 = \rho_a g h_2

Replacing,

(846)(32.17405)(\frac{1}{12}) = (0.0075)(32.17405)(h_2)

Rearranging to find h_2

h_2 = \frac{(846)(32.17405)(\frac{1}{12}) }{(0.0075)(32.17405)}

h = 9400ft

Therefore the elevation of the mountain top is 9400ft
