Answer:

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Pressure applied by the woman = 300N/m²

Area = 0.02m²

Unknown:

Force applied = ?

Solution:

Pressure is the force per unit area on a body

Pressure = $\frac{force}{area}$

Force = Pressure x area

Force = 300 x 0.02 = 6N

Normal atmospheric pressure is 1.013 105 Pa. The approach of a storm causes the height of a mercury barometer to drop by 27.1 mm

Burka [1]

Answer:

The atmospheric pressure is $0.97622\times10^{5}\ Pa$ .

Explanation:

Given that,

Atmospheric pressure $P_{atm}= 1.013\times10^{5}\ Pa$

drop height h'= 27.1 mm

Density of mercury $\rho= 13.59 g/cm^3$

We need to calculate the height

Using formula of pressure

$p = \rho g h$

Put the value into the formula

$1.013\times10^{5}=13.59\times10^{3}\times9.8\times h$

$h =\dfrac{1.013\times10^{5}}{13.59\times10^{3}\times9.8}$

$h=0.76\ m$

We need to calculate the new height

$h''=h - h'$

$h''=0.76-27.1\times10^{-3}$

$h''=0.76-0.027$

$h''=0.733\ m$

We need to calculate the atmospheric pressure

Using formula of atmospheric pressure

$P=\rho g h$

Put the value into the formula

$P= 13.59\times10^{3}\times9.8\times0.733$

$P=0.97622\times10^{5}\ Pa$

Hence, The atmospheric pressure is $0.97622\times10^{5}\ Pa$ .

What is the dimensional formula of pressure ??

Igoryamba

Answer:

pressure is equal to the net amount of force acting per unit area. Dimensional Formulae of force is M1L1T-2 and of area is L2. Therefore Pressure's dimension can be obtained by calculating Force by Area. Dimensional formula of pressure difference is M1L-1T-2.

The part that it played was in the changing of the environment/climate for the organisms that live on those continents. And the part it could've played was the way that the organisms had to adapt to that climate and it stayed that way over generations.
