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?
Let's begin with a simple calculation of the weight of air using density. Find the mass of air and its weight in a living room that has a 4.4m×6.1m floor and a ceiling 3.5 m high. What volume of water would have a mass equal to the mass of air in the room?
The density of a gas is 0.417 kg/m^3. What is the specific volume of the gas?

- Local authorities of Ankara built a basin as cylindrical tank with an upper diameter D1 = 1500m, lower diameter D2 = 750m and height H = 25m, in Ankara as shown in the figure. Nowadays we face out drought periods, the water height in the basin is at the level of 9 m. This value should not fall below 5 m (critical point). Regional officials estimate that the consumption rate in the city is 71620 m / day from the pipe with 2 m in diameter, and the water inlet flow rate from various source (rainfall, current) to the basin will be 150000 m3/ day.
