5) As you fly higher and higher on the air, the atmospheric pressure surrounding an aircraft islower (atmospheric pressure is higher at sea level). Why is it possible for the aircraft torupture at high altitudes in the aluminum skin is not thick enough? Hint: Think of whathappens with a Submarine at high pressures, the answer here is the complete opposite

From basic principles, we know that force always acts from region of high pressure to region of low…

I could estimate the area of the thumbnail with the formula of a square like a=a^2 to use as a reference to estimate how many pounds the atmospheric pressure on us equals. What formulas and theories should I apply to get that pressure in pounds?
The motion picture Titanic described the tragedy of the collision of the ocean liner of the same name with an iceberg in the North Atlantic. The ship sank soon after the collision on April 14, 1912, and now rests on the sea floor at a depth of 12382 ft.Recently, the wreck was explored by the research vessel Nautile, which has successfully recovered a variety of items from the debris field surrounding the sunken ship.Calculate the pressure in atmospheres and pounds per square inch exerted on the hull of the Nautile as it explores the sea bed surrounding the Titanic.
The deepest part of our ocean is the Challenger Deep in the Mariana Trench near Guam. At its deepest point, objects are 10,935 meters below sea level. Assuming an atmospheric pressure of 1.01325 x105 Pa and a seawater density of 1023 kg/m3, calculate the total crushing FORCE a submarine of surface area 200 m2 experiences at this depth.
The temperature of the atmosphere is not always constant and can increase or decrease with height. In a neutral atmosphere, where there is not a significant amount of vertical mixing, the temperature decreases at a rate of approximately 6.5 K per km. The magnitude of the decrease in temperature as height increases is known as the lapse rate (I). (The symbol is the upper case Greek letter gamma.) Assume that the surface pressure is po = 1.013 × 10° Pa where T=293K and the lapse rate is ( -T = 6.5) K -) . Estimate the pressure 3.0 km km above the surface of Earth.
A high-altitude balloon is partially filled with 3 m^3 of helium at sea level. As the balloon ascends through the atmosphere, the pressure drops and the gas expands. When it reaches its maximum volume of 7 m^3, whats is the pressure? (Assume the temperature does not change.)
Calculate the absolute pressure at an ocean depth of 70 m. Assume the density of sea water is 1 020 kg/m3 and the air above exerts a pressure of 101.3 kPa
14. An environmental systems technician measures air pressure at each end of a duct. The first measurement is 0.042 lb/eq Inch and the second measurement is 0.026 b/aq inch. What is the pressure drop between the ends?
Devices like Fitbits determine whether you have climbed stairs by determining when the atmospheric pressure changes while you are walking. By what percentage should the atmospheric pressure change when you climb a flight of stairs? You may assume the atmosphere is entirely nitrogen and that the temperature is 25 degrees celsius, and that the flight of stairs is 10 feet elevation change in total.
Why does atmospheric pressure decrease more rapidly than linearly with altitude?
When an automobile moves for a long time, the air pressure in tyres increases slightly. Why?
