2-13 The variation of density of atmospheric air with elevation is given in tabular form. A relation for the variation of
density with elevation is to be obtained, the density at 7 km elevation is to be calculated, and the mass of the atmosphere
using the correlation is to be estimated.

Pressure, Manometer, and Barometer
2-23C The atmospheric pressure, which is the external pressure exerted on the skin, decreases with increasing elevation.
Therefore, the pressure is lower at higher elevations. As a result, the difference between the blood pressure in the veins and
the air pressure outside increases. This pressure imbalance may cause some thin-walled veins such as the ones in the nose to
burst, causing bleeding. The shortness of breath is caused by the lower air density at higher elevations, and thus lower
amount of oxygen per unit volume.
2-24C The blood vessels are more restricted when the arm is parallel to the body than when the arm is perpendicular to the
2-25C No, the absolute pressure in a liquid of constant density does not double when the depth is doubled. It is the gage
pressure that doubles when the depth is doubled.
2-26C Pascal’s principle states that the pressure applied to a confined fluid increases the pressure throughout by the same
2-27C The density of air at sea level is higher than the density of air on top of a high mountain. Therefore, the volume flow

2-32E The pressure in a tank is measured with a manometer by measuring the differential height of the manometer fluid.
The absolute pressure in the tank is to be determined for the cases of the manometer arm with the higher and lower fluid
level being attached to the tank .
2-33 The pressure in a pressurized water tank is measured by a multi-fluid manometer. The gage pressure of air in the tank
is to be determined.

2-41 A mountain hiker records the barometric reading before and after a hiking trip. The vertical distance climbed is to be
determined.
2-42 A barometer is used to measure the height of a building by recording reading at the bottom and at the top of the
building. The height of the building is to be determined.

2-48 Problem 2-47 is reconsidered. The effect of the manometer fluid density in the range of 800 to 13,000 kg/m3 on
the differential fluid height of the manometer is to be investigated. Differential fluid height against the density is to be
plotted, and the results are to be discussed.
