Answer:
(a). 14.4 lbf/in^2.
(b). 27.8 in, AS THE TEMPERATURE INCREASES, THE LENGTH OF MERCURY DECREASES.
Explanation:
So, from the question above we are given the following parameters which are going to help us in solving this particular Question;
=> The "barometer accidentally contains 6.5 inches of water on top of the mercury column (so there is also water vapor instead of a vacuum at the top of the barometer)"
=> "On a day when the temperature is 70oF, the mercury column height is 28.35 inches (corrected for thermal expansion)."
With these knowledge, let us delve right into the solution;
(a). The barometric pressure = water vapor pressure + acceleration due to gravity (ft/s^2) × water density(slug/ft^3) × {ft/12 in}^3 × [ height of mercury column + specific gravity of mercury × height of water column].
The barometric pressure= 0.363 + {(62.146) ÷ (12^3) × 390.6425}. = 14.4 lbf/in^2.
(b). { (13.55 × length of mercury) + 6.5 } × (62.15÷ 12^3) = 14.4 - 0.603.
Length of mercury = 27.8 in.
AS THE TEMPERATURE INCREASES, THE LENGTH OF MERCURY DECREASES.
That would be a conduction.

Answer:

Explanation:
The acceleration of an object (or a person, as in this case) is given by

where
v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
t is the time interval
In this problem,
u = 20 m/s
v = 40 m/s
t = 10 s
Therefore Jill's acceleration is
