Answer:

The air around you has weight, and it presses against everything it touches. That pressure is called atmospheric pressure, or air pressure. It is the force exerted on a surface by the air above it as gravity pulls it to Earth.

Atmospheric pressure is commonly measured with a barometer. In a barometer, a column of mercury in a glass tube rises or falls as the weight of the atmosphere changes. Meteorologists describe the atmospheric pressure by how high the mercury rises.

An atmosphere (atm) is a unit of measurement equal to the average air pressure at sea level at a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius (59 degrees Fahrenheit). One atmosphere is 1,013 millibars, or 760 millimeters (29.92 inches) of mercury.

Atmospheric pressure drops as altitude increases. The atmospheric pressure on Denali, Alaska, is about half that of Honolulu, Hawai'i. Honolulu is a city at sea level. Denali, also known as Mount McKinley, is the highest peak in North America.

f the magnitude of the acceleration of a propeller blade's tip exceeds a certain value amaxamax, the blade tip will fracture. If
Luden [163]

Answer:

The angular velocity is   w= \sqrt[4]{\frac{a_{max}^2}{r^2}  - \alpha ^2}      

Explanation:

Generally the acceleration experienced by the propeller blade's is broken down into

          The Radial acceleration which is mathematically represented as

                              a_r = \frac{v^2}{r}  = w^2r

And the Tangential  acceleration which is mathematically represented as

                                a_r = \alpha r

  The net acceleration is evaluated as

                      a = \sqrt{a_r^2 + a_t^2}

       

Now since angular speed varies directly with angular acceleration so when acceleration is maximum the angular velocity is maximum also and this point if the propeller blade's tip exceeds it the blade would fracture

                 

So at maximum angular acceleration we a have

             a_{max} = \sqrt{a_r^2 + a_t^2}

                     a_{max}^2 = a_r^2 + a_t^2

                    a_{max}^2 = (w^2r)^2 + (\alpha r)^2

                 a_{max}^2 =  r^2 w^4 + r^2 \alpha ^2

                  a_{max}^2 = r^2 (w^4 + \alpha^2 )

                w^4 +\alpha ^2 = \frac{a_{max}^2}{r^2}

                         w^4 = \frac{a_{max}^2}{r^2}  - \alpha ^2

                         w= \sqrt[4]{\frac{a_{max}^2}{r^2}  - \alpha ^2}
