As a rain storm passes through a region, there is an associated drop in atmospheric pressure. If the height of a mercury baromet

er drops by 21.6 mm from the normal height, what is the atmospheric pressure (in Pa)? Normal atmospheric pressure is 1.013 ✕ 105 Pa and the density of mercury is 13.6 g/cm3.

Answer:

new atmospheric pressure is 0.9838 × 10^{5}  Pa

Explanation:

given data

height = 21.6 mm = 0.0216 m

Normal atmospheric pressure = 1.013 ✕ 10^5 Pa

density of mercury = 13.6 g/cm³

to find out

atmospheric pressure

solution

we find first height of mercury when normal pressure that is

pressure p = ρ×g×h

put here value

1.013 × 10^{5}  = 13.6 × 10³ × 9.81 × h

h =  0.759 m

so change in height Δh = 0.759 - 0.0216

new height H = 0.7374 m

so new pressure = ρ×g×H

put here value

new pressure = 13.6 × 10³ × 9.81 × 0.7374

atmospheric pressure = 98380.9584

so new atmospheric pressure is 0.9838 × 10^{5}  Pa

Answer:

K.E =  \frac{1}{2} m {v}^{2}  \\  {v}^{2}_i  =  {v}^{2} _x + {v}^{2} _y \\  =  {(6)}^{2}  +  {( - 2)}^{2}  = 36 + 4 = 40m. {s}^{ - 1} \\ K.E_i =  \frac{1}{2} (3) (40) = 60J \\  \\ {v}^{2}_f  =  {v}^{2} _x + {v}^{2} _y \\  =  {(8)}^{2}  +  {(4)}^{2}  = 80m. {s}^{ - 1} \\ K.E_i =  \frac{1}{2} (3) (80) = 120J \\ W_{net}=K.E_f-K.E_i \\  = 120J - 60J \\  = 60J
