4.102 During the fall of 2005, Hurricane Wilma passed through the Gulf of Mexico. When the storm was classified as a cate- gory 5 hurricane, the pressure at the center of the hurricane was measured at 902 mbars. The highest wind velocity was 175 mph. Assuming the pressure far from the center of the hurricane was 1 bar and the air density was 1.2 kg/m², estimate the pres- sure at the center of the hurricane. Comment on the difference in your prediction and the measured value and provide some ratio- nale for the discrepancy.

c) Consider a U-tube whose arms are open to the atmosphere. Now equal volumes of water and light oil (dersity=49.3 kg/m?) are poured from different arms. Air Oil Water 30 in A person blows fromthe oil side of the U-tube until the contact surface of the two fluids mmves to the bottomof the U-tube, and thus the liquid levels in the two arms are the same. If the fluid height in each am is 30 in, determine the gage pressure the person exerts onthe oil by blowing.
