Atmospheric pressure and density at the top of Mount Everest ​

Physics
1 answer:
Art [367]3 years ago
3 0

The summit of Mount Everest has an average pressure around 30 kPa. ... A barometer also measures variations in atmospheric pressure. As altitude increases, the air becomes thinner, the density of air decreases, and the pressure of the air decreases as well.

A 0.0450-kg golf ball initially at rest is given a speed of 25.0 m/s when a club strikes. If the club and ball are in contact fo
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

Average force, F = 562.5 N

Explanation:

Mass of the golf ball, m = 0.045 kg

Initially, it is at rest, u = 0

Final speed of the ball, v = 25 m/s

The club and the ball are in contact for, t=2\ ms=2\times 10^{-3}\ s

We need to find the average force acting on the ball. It can be calculated using the formula as :

F\times t=m(v-u)

F=m\dfrac{v-u}{t}

F=0.045\times \dfrac{25}{2\times 10^{-3}}  

F = 562.5 N

So, the average force acting on the ball is 562.5 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

A manometer is used to measure the air pressure in a tank. the fluid used has a specific gravity of 1.25, and the differential h
BartSMP [9]
Specific Gravity of the fluid = 1.25 
Height h = 28 in
 Atmospheric Pressure = 12.7 psia
 Density of water = 62.4 lbm/ft^3 at 32F
 Density of the Fluid = Specific Gravity of the fluid x Density of water = 1.25 x 62.4
 Density of the Fluid p = 78 lbm/ft^3
 Difference in pressure as we got the differential height, dP = p x g x h  dP = (78 lbm/ft^3) x (32.174 ft/s^2) x (28/12 ft) [ 1 lbf / 32.174 ft/s^2] [1 ft^2 /
144in^2]
 Difference in pressure = 1.26 psia
 (a) Pressure in the arm that is at Higher 
 P = Atmospheric Pressure - Pressure difference = 12.7 - 1.26 = 11.44 psia
 (b) Pressure in the tank that is at Lower
 P = Atmospheric Pressure + Pressure difference = 12.7 + 1.26 = 13.96psia
