Question

Transcribed Image Text:**32. A house has a roof with
the dimensions shown in the
drawing. Determine the mag-
14.5 m
4.21 m
nitude and direction of the
net force that the atmosphere
applies to the roof when the
outside pressure drops sud-
denly by 75.0 mm of mercury
before the air pressure in the
attic can adjust. Express your
answer in (a) newtons and
(b) pounds.

- Tire gauges for air pressure, as well as most other gauges used in an industrial environment take into account the pressure due to the atmosphere of earth. That's why your car gauge reads 0 before you put it on your tire to check your pressure. That is called gauge pressure. The real pressure within a tire or other object contains pressurized stuff would be a combination of what the gauge reads as well at the atmospheric pressure. If a gauge on a tire reads 40.16 psi, what is the real pressure in the tire in pascals. The atmospheric pressure is 1.01x10^5 Pa.arrow_forwardThe height of mercury in a barometer is measured at 85.0 cm.
