Question 2,3, and 4
Variation of Pressure in the atmosphere. The pressure of the atmosphere decreases as we move higher in the atmosphere. The decrease in pressure is proportional to the decrease in density of air. р = 2|2° P P Where P = pressure at any point in the atmosphere, and p = density of air at any point in the atmosphere Po pressure at sea level = 1.013 x 105 Pa, and Po air density at sea level = 1.3 kg/m³. a) What is the density p in terms of po, P, and Po? b) Start from the formula dP = - p g dy to determine the pressure at any height y. Note: P is variable c) What is the pressure if the height is 5.0 km above sea level? d) At what height above sea level is the pressure equal to ½ Po ?
Please help. This problem involves finding the radius and volume of a platinum atom using its density. Thank you.
A snowman is made from three spheres of packed snow stacked on one another. Assume each sphere has a uniform volumetric mass density that is three quarters that of water. The volumetric mass density of water is ?????? = 1 (?/??). The bottom sphere has a radius of 50 cm. The middle sphere has a radius of 35 cm. The top sphere has a radius of 20 cm. The formula for the volume of a sphere is ???ℎ??? = (4/3)??^3. How far above the ground is the center of mass of the snowman?
One mole of Gold (Au) atom has a mass of 197 g. We know that the density of gold is 19.30 g/cm3 in room temperature.
