Answer:

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question

mass = 2.5 kg

acceleration = 3.0 m/s²

We have

force = 2.5 × 3.0 = 7.5

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

Answer:

442.36038 m or 1451.31362 ft

Explanation:

$P_1$ = Initial pressure = 30.15 inHg

$P_2$ = Final pressure = 28.607 inHg

$\rho$ = Density of air = 0.075 lb/ft³

$1\ lb/ft^3=16.0185\ kg/m^3$

$1\ in=0.0254\ m$

$1\ m=3.28084\ ft$

Density of mercury = 13560 kg/m³

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Difference in pressure is given by

$P_1-P_2=\rho gh\\\Rightarrow h=\frac{P_1-P_2}{\rho g}\\\Rightarrow h=\frac{(30.15-28.607)\times 13560\times 0.0254\times 9.81}{0.075\times 16.0185\times 9.81}\\\Rightarrow h=442.36038\ m\\\Rightarrow h=442.36038\times 3.28084\\\Rightarrow h=1451.31362\ ft$
