- At a certain elevation, the pilot of a balloon has a mass of 125 lb and a weight of 119 lbf. What is the local acceleration of gravity, in ft/s2, at that elevation? If the balloon drifts to another elevation where g = 32.05 ft/s2, what is her weight, in lbf, and mass, in lb?arrow_forwardFind the atmospheric pressure in kilopascals if the mercury barometer reads 742 mm. Specific gravity of mercury is S=13.57, g=9.81m/s2. a) 103.8 kPa b) 93.8 kPa c) 88.8 kPa d) 83.8 kPa  e) 98.8 kPaarrow_forwardThe gravitational acceleration on Mars is 3.72 m/s2. The density of water is 1000 kg/m3. Starting from these assumptions, estimate the specific weight of water on Mars in lbf/ft3. Note that when converting lbm (pounds mass) to lbf (pounds force), a unit conversion called gc is required (1 lbf = 32.2 lbm ft s-2). The conversion factor ensures that (under normal gravity), a 100 lbm load generates 100 lbf of gravitational forcearrow_forward

Air density is given by ρ(z) = ρa exp(− gz/ RT), where ρa = 1.225 kg/m3 is the density of air at the sea level, g = 9.81 m/s^2 is the gravitational acceleration, R = 287.06 J/kg/K is the specific gas constant of air, and T is the air temperature, which is constant in the stratosphere and equal to 217 K (Note that this expression for the atmospheric density is strictly correct only in the isothermal region of the stratosphere. However, please use it for solution to this problem). This balloon is designed so that ρHe and its side length h = 30 cm remain constant for all z.
