A student enters in a Physics lab wants to know the atmospheric pressure, how he can measure it? Through certain device he founds that its value is 1.083 bar, if some amount of oxygen gas is introduced in the space above the Mercury level, due to which this level falls by 5 cm. Predict the volume of oxygen gas introduced above the Mercury level, if it is assumed that its height in a tube is 1 m with 2 cm2 area of cross section.
I got 680 N is this correct?
A vertical, frictionless piston-cylinder device contains a gas at 600 kPa absolute. The atmospheric pressure outside is 100 kPa absolute. The piston has a diameter of 50 mm. a) Determine the mass of the piston. b) If the mass of the piston is now halved ---- what would be the gauge pressure of the gas?
Tire gauges for air pressure, as well as most other gauges used in an industrial environment take into account the pressure due to the atmosphere of earth. That's why your car gauge reads 0 before you put it on your tire to check your pressure. That is called gauge pressure. The real pressure within a tire or other object contains pressurized stuff would be a combination of what the gauge reads as well at the atmospheric pressure. If a gauge on a tire reads 40.16 psi, what is the real pressure in the tire in pascals. The atmospheric pressure is 1.01x10^5 Pa.
Determine the thickness of a hollow aluminum sphere with a mass of o.35g and has an outer radius of o.50 cm if the density of the aluminum is 2700kg/m^3.
