The velocity of the spacecraft with respect to the Sun is
the velocity of the comet in the reference system of the spacecraft is
So, the velocity of the comet in the reference system of the Sun will be
And the negative sign tells us that the comet is directed toward the Sun.
Answer:
(a) 693.12 torr
(b) 68.5 kilopascals
(c) 0.862 atmosphere
(d) 1.306 atmospheres
(e) 36.74 psi
Explanation:
(a) 0.912 atm = 0.912 atm × 760 torr/1 atm = 693.12 torr
(b) 0.685 bar = 0.685 bar × 100 kPa/1 bar = 68.5 kPa
(c) 655 mmHg = 655 mmHg × 1 atm/760 mmHg = 0.862 atm
(d) 1.323×10^5 Pa = 1.323×10^5 Pa × 1 atm/1.01325×10^5 Pa = 1.306 atm
(e) 2.50 atm = 2.50 atm × 14.696 psi/1 atm = 36.74 psi
Water is another valuable resource. Water is needed to irrigate crops; for drinking, sanitation, and transportation; and also to produce electricity. Many countries in this region are located along swiftly moving rivers. They are able to harness this water to generate electricity. Rivers running down mountains are dammed to produce hydroelectric power.
