Problem 1: Assume the atmosphere can be treated as isothermal. In this case, the density varies
exponentially with altitude as:
P = Po (e 7+²)
Po is the density at the base of the column of air (sea level). Assume the atmosphere as if it were pure
nitrogen (N2) with mass 28 amu at a temperature of 288 K and that Po 1.23 kg/m3. Note that 1 amu =
1.66 x 10-27 kg. What is the mass per square meter of a column of this gas between y = 1500 m and y =
4500 m?
> An interval of 1 Celcius or Kelvin degree therefore is equal to 1
Fahrenheit or Rankine degrees, leading to the conversion factc
Example:
Consider the interval from 20 °F to 80 °F.
1.
1.8° F/1°C = 1, 1.8° R/1K = 1, 1°F/1°R = 1, 1°C/1K = 1
2.
Calculate the equivalent temperatures in °C and the interval
between them.
Calculate directly the interval in °C.
What is the change in length of a 3.00-cm-long column of mercury if its temperature changes from 39.0°C to 57.5°C, assuming it is unconstrained lengthwise? (Use 60 ✕ 10−6/°C as the coefficient of expansion of mercury. Be sure to include the correct sign with your answer.) mm
