1. Assuming that the density of air is a constant 1.29 kg/m3 and that the air pressure is 29.92 inches (76.00 cm) of Hg, what is the pressure (in inch-Hg) at the top of a 458 meter high skyscraper?

Question
1. Assuming that the density of air is a constant
1.29 kg/m3 and that the air pressure is 29.92
inches (76.00 cm) of Hg, what is the pressure (in
inch-Hg) at the top of a 458 meter high
skyscraper?
2. Water is in the big beaker in the figure on the
left. Scale 1 reads 69.1 Newton, scale 2 reads 287
Newton, and scale 3 reads 0 Newton. The
hanging block has a density of 9.27 x 103 kg/m3.
What does scale 1 read (in Newton) after three-
quarter of the block is lowered into the beaker
of water?
