Outside your house 1.0km from ground zero of a 100-kiloton nuclear bomb explosion, the pressure will rapidly rise to as high as 2.8atm while the pressure inside the house remains 1.0atm. If the front house measures 3.33m high by 15.0m wide, what is the resulting net force exerted by air on the front of the house?

Space botany requires a certain pressue of 1.20 space pressure units (SPU) for the growth biomes to be succesful. If 1 SPU= 3 earth atm, what value should my tool that reads out in torr be for everything to be good? Hint: there are 3 units you should be working with.
Evangelista Torricelli was the first person to realize that we live at the bottomof an ocean of air. He correctly surmised that the pressure of our atmosphereis attributable to the weight of the air. The density of air at 0°C at the Earth'ssurface is 1.29 kg/m3 . The density decreases with increasing altitude (as theatmosphere thins). On the other hand, if we assume that the density isconstant at 1.29 kg/m3 up to some altitude h, and zero above that altitude, then h would represent the depth of the ocean of air.Use this model to determine the value of h that gives a pressure of 1.00 atmat the surface of the Earth.
The rate of change of atmospheric pressure P with respect to altitude h is proportional to P, provided that the temperature is constant. At 15°C the pressure is 101.3 kPa at sca level and 87.14 kPa at h = 1000 m. (a) What is the pressure at an altitude of 3000 m? (b) What is the pressure on top of Mount McKinley, at an altitude of 6187 m?

The volume flow rate of liquid refrigerant-134a at 10oF (ρ = 83.31 lbm/ft3) is to be measured with a horizontal Venturi meter with a diameter of 6 in at the inlet and 2 in at the If a differential pressure meter indicates a pressure drop of 7.5 psi, determine the flow rate of the refrigerant. Take the discharge coefficient of the Venturi meter to be 0.98.

Assuming the normal barometric pressure , how deep in the ocean is the point where an air bubble , upon reaching the surface , has six times its volume that it had at the bottom
An airplane passenger has a volume V1 of air in his stomach just before the plane takes off from a sea-level airport. What volume will this quantity of air have at cruising altitude at the same temprerature ( body temp. ), in terms of V1, the pressure on the ground P1, and the cabin pressure at cruising altitude P2? What is this volume, in cubic centimeters, if the initial volume is 110 cm^3 and the cabin pressure drops to 7.5x10^4 Pa when the plane is at cruising altitude?

The bends during flight. Anyone who scuba dives is advised not to fly within the next 24 h because the air mixture for diving can introduce nitrogen to the bloodstream. Without allowing the nitrogen to come out of solution slowly, any sudden air-pressure reduction (such as during airplane ascent) can result in the nitrogen forming bubbles in the blood, creating the bends, which can be painful and even fatal. Military special operation forces are especially at risk. What is the change in pressure on such a special-op soldier who must scuba dive at a depth of 20 m in seawater one day and parachute at an altitude of 7.6 km the next day? Assume that the average air density within the altitude range is 0.87 kg/m3.
