- If sea level is 101350pa ,calculate the standard pressure at an altitude of 5000m using (a) the exact formula (b) an isothermal assumption at a standard sea level temperature of 15°C. Is the isothermal approximately adequate?In a hurricane, the mean sustained wind velocity v (in meters per second) can be modeled by v(p) = 6.31013-p, where p is the air pressure in millibars at the center of the hurricane. Estimate the air pressure, p, at the center of the hurrican when the mean sustained wind velocity, (v(p)), is 60 meters per second. Round to the nearest hundredth. mbar Blank 1:In the Challenger Deep of the Marianas Trench, the depth of seawater is 10.9 km and the pressure is 1.16×108Pa (about 1.15×103atm). (a) If a cubic meter of water is taken from the surface to this depth, what is the change in its volume? (Normal atmospheric pressure is about 1.0×105Pa. Assume that k for seawater is the same as the freshwater value given in Table) (b) What is the density of seawater at this depth? (At the surface, seawater has a density of 1.03×103kg/m)"
- 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.Humans evolved in Earth's atmosphere, therefore the pressures interior to the body are relatively close to atmospheric pressure. Because the differences between internal body pressures and atmospheric pressure are so small, individuals have a difficult time gauging the magnitude of atmospheric pressure. Suppose an individual is lying on his stomach with sheets of paper stacked on his back. If each sheet of paper has a mass of 0.00380 kg and is the standard letter size of 8.5 in by 11 in (0.216 m by 0.279 m), how many sheets must be stacked to produce pressure on his back equal to atmospheric pressure (roughly 101325 Pa)? sheets of paper required:A submarine dives down to a depth 80 metres beneath the surface of the ocean. Calculate the pressure in atmospheres at that depth, assuming the density of water is 1029 kg/m3, and the air pressure at the surface is 105.2 kPa. Give your answer with two digits of precision. Note: 1 standard atmosphere is 101325 Pa. Your Answer: Answer
