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.

Consider an old-fashion bicycle with a small wheel of radius 0.17 m and a large wheel of radius 0.92 m. Suppose the rider starts

Gala2k [10]

Answer:

10259.6 m

Explanation:

We are given that

Radius of small wheel,r=0.17 m

Radius of large wheel,r'=0.92 m

Initial velocity,u=0

Time,t=2.7 minutes=162 s

1 min=60 s

Velocity,v=10m/s

Time,t'=13.7 minutes=822 s

Time,t''=4.1 minutes=246 s

$v=u+at$

Substitute the values

$10=0+162a=162a$

$a=\frac{10}{162}=0.0617m/s^2$

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

Substitute the values

$s=\frac{1}{2}(0.0617)(162)^2=809.6 m$

$s'=vt'=10\times 822=8220 m$

$a'=\frac{v}{t''}=\frac{10}{246}$

$s''=\frac{1}{2}a't''^2=\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{10}{246}(246)^2=1230 m$

Total distance traveled by rider=s+s'+s''=809.6+8220+1230=10259.6 m

In general, how did the water pressure in the tank change when mass was added to the fluid?

MissTica

Answer:

As the height increases the pressure must increase.

Explanation:

When we add masses to the fluid, the amount of fluid in the tank increases, therefore its height increases and the pressure is described by the expression

P = ρ g h

where rho is constant for a given fluid and h is the height measured from the surface of the fluid.

As the height increases the pressure must increase.
