An engineer living at an elevation of 2500 ft is conducting experiments to verify predictions of glider performance. To process data, density of ambient air is needed. The engineer measures  temperature (74.3°F) and atmospheric pressure (27.3 inches of mercury). Calculate density in units of kg /m3 .Compare the calculated value with data from Table A.3 and make a recommendation about the effects of elevation on density; that is, are the effects of elevation significant? show solution.

Basic Terminology in Mechanics

The area of science and mathematics concerned the motion of the objects, the relation between the force matter, and motion if specified. Forces exerted over the objects result in displacements or changes in the position of an object concerning its environment. This branch of physics keeps its roots in Ancient Greece in the form of the scripts of Aristotle and Archimedes.
