You would like to use a simple water-filled barometer (an inverted tube in a container of water) to measure the atmospheric pressure on a day when the pressure is 102.5 kPa. What would be the minimum height required for such a barometer to work

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]h=10.459m[/tex]

Explanation:

Pressure [tex]P=102.5kPa[/tex]

Atmospheric Pressure [tex]P=1000kg/m^3[/tex]

Generally the equation for Pressure P is mathematically given by

 [tex]P=pgh[/tex]

 [tex]P=1000*9.8*h[/tex]

 [tex]h=\frac{102.5*10^3}{1000*9.8}[/tex]

[tex]h=10.459m[/tex]
