Answer:
new atmospheric pressure is 0.9838 × 
Pa
Explanation:
given data
height = 21.6 mm = 0.0216 m
Normal atmospheric pressure = 1.013 ✕ 10^5 Pa
density of mercury = 13.6 g/cm³
to find out
atmospheric pressure
solution
we find first height of mercury when normal pressure that is
pressure p = ρ×g×h
put here value
1.013 × = 13.6 × 10³ × 9.81 × h
h = 0.759 m
so change in height Δh = 0.759 - 0.0216
new height H = 0.7374 m
so new pressure = ρ×g×H
put here value
new pressure = 13.6 × 10³ × 9.81 × 0.7374
atmospheric pressure = 98380.9584
so new atmospheric pressure is 0.9838 × Pa
Sound waves travel faster through <em>solids</em> than they do through gases or liquids. <em>(C) </em>They don't travel through vacuum at all.
Example:
Speed of sound in normal air . . . around 340 m/s
Speed of sound in water . . . around 1,480 m/s
Speed of sound in iron . . . around 5,120 m/s
Explanation:
Though the diagram that is mentioned in the questions is not given. I have given general information related to the Earth's magnetic axis with respect to geographic/rotational axis.
Axis is an imaginary line around which a body rotates. The rotational axis of the Earth enters into and exits from the Earth at two points namely: North and South pole.
We know that the Earth behaves like a huge bar magnet so just like the bar magnet it must also have magnetic axis and poles. Earth has north magnetic pole and south magnetic pole. It has a strong magnetic field as well known as magnetosphere.
The interesting point about magnetic axis is that it is not same as rotational axis. In fact it makes an angle with the rotational axis. This is known as magnetic inclination. This inclination varies at different points on Earth.
Another interesting point is that the geographic and magnetic poles are opposite. That means near the geographic north pole we have the magnetic south pole and vice versa.
