2.1 Atmospheric pressure. If you have recently taken a flight on a commercial airline, you will be familiar with the instructions that are given in the event of a change in cabin pressure, such as in Video 6 below.
CHAPTER 2. ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE 2.1 MEASURING ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE The atmospheric pressure is the weight exerted by the overhead atmosphere on a unit area of surface. It can be measured with a mercury barometer, consisting of a long glass tube full of mercury inverted over a pool of mercury: Figure 2-1 Mercury barometer
25 lip 2023 · For science educators, it should be obvious that until the concept of momentum is taught, there is no way to include momentum flux across an airfoil, especially the important subtleties regarding the choice of a control volume. Since air pressure is taught at lower levels, a pressure-based explanation is going to be preferred.
