The differential change in pressure p close to the surface of a static fluid is given by the following expression:dp/dy = -3Ap2,where A is a constant, with units of 1/(atm•m), and p is the pressure in atm. The pressure at the surface of the fluid is p(0) = 1 atm, and the coordinate y here is positive upwards with origin at the surface.
An absulute pressure gauge is placed at a depth 0.19m in the fluid. What would be the reading of the pressure gauge in units in atm? you can take the constant A=1(atm.m)^-1

The Ideal gas law shows the relationship between some common properties of ideal gases and is written as PV = nRT. P = pressure, V = volume, n = number of moles of ideal Gas, R = General gas constant = 8.314 kJ/(kmol.K) and T = absolute temperature. 5 mol ideal gas at 22°C is placed in a cube with edge lengths of 0.750 meters. Calculate the pressure of the Ideal gas as [Pa].

Here x refers to an angular displacement measured from the vertical and t refers to time. The particle's mass is given by m=3kg. The length of the string is given by L=5 meters. Whenever the particle arrives at a location of x=(pi/12) radians from the vertical, the particle has no instantaneous speed. On both sides of the vertical, that is, x=(pi/12) radians is repeatedly observed to be a 'turning point' for the particle's periodic motion. 1.

At sea level the average atmospheric pressure is 15 lbs/sq in, or 101.3 kPa, or 760 mm Hg, or 1 atmosphere. Since all of these are equal, you can easily convert from one to the other. For example, if your tire pressure is 32.0 lbs/square inch, you can determine the kilopascals in the following manner: 32.0 lb/sq in X 101.3 kPa / 15 lbs/sq in = 216 kPa.
