-A projectile is accelerated through the barrel of a gas gun by gas at high pressure. The acceleration of the projectile is given by a=c/s (m/s) where s (m) is the position of the projectile in the barrel and c is a constant that depends on the initial gas pressure. The projectile starts from rest at s= 1 m and accelerates until it reaches the end of the barrel at s = 2.5 m. a) Determine the value of c for the projectile to leave the barrel with a velocity of 125 m/s. b) (Python) Plot s vs t, v vs t.

Why is the Earths atmosphere denser near sea level than it is at a high altitude? Be sure to explain why the atmospheres density is not uniform and why the air isnt all in contact with the Earths surface.
A manometer containing water with one end connected to a container of gas has a column height difference of 0.60 m (Fig. P15.72). If the atmospheric pressure on the right column is 1.01 105 Pa, find the absolute pressure of the gas in the container. The density of water is 1.0 103 kg/m3. FIGURE P15.72
How many cubic meters of helium are required to lift a light balloon with a 400-kg payload to a height of 8 000 m? Take Hc = 0.179 kg/m3. Assume the balloon maintains a constant volume and the density of air decreases with the altitude z according to the expression pair = 0e-z/8 000, where z is in meters and 0 = 1.20 kg/m3 is the density of air at sea level.
Suppose you are at the top of Mount Everest and you fill a water balloon. The air pressure at the top of Mount Everest is 58 kPa. a. What is the fractional change in the balloons volume V/Vi when you take it to sea level? b. If instead you take it 100 m below the surface of the ocean, what is the fractional change in its volume?
The density of air in the Earths atmosphere decreases according to the function =0eh/h0, where 0=1.20kg/m3 is the density of air at sea level and h0 is the scale height of the atmosphere, with an average value of 7640 m. What is the maximum payload that a balloon filled with 2.50 103 m3 of helium (He=0.179kg/m3) can lift to an altitude of 10.0 km?
