Water is not used as barometric liquid?

Mercury is having a higher specific density ( about 13 times that of water) . So if we want to make a barometer using water it should be at least 13 times the length of mercury barometer that is about 11m so it is advisable to use mercury as a barometric liquid.


Is it safe to take an aneroid barometer on an airplane?

Commercial aircraft are pressurized to the equivalent of 8,000 ft of altitude, or lower. That means air pressure in the cabin is lower, not higher. Many people in Colorado live at 8,000 ft. Your barometer should be fine.However, while you could bring a dial type barometer aboard the aircraft, a mercury barometer could not be (hazard of the mercury in it.)


What tells you how much moisture in the air?

It should be a barometer but then again I could be wrong, hope im right!


How many quarks could fit in the sun?

If a quark has a length of 1×10-18m, and if the volume of a quark could be calculated by using this length as it's diameter, then: The volume of a quark would be 5.236x10-49m And if the volume of the sun is about 1.409 x 1018km3 (or 1.409x1027m3), then the number of quarks that could fit in the sun would be: 1.409x1027m3 / 5.236x10-49m3 = 0.269x1076 or 2.69x1075 or 2.69 Quattuorvigintillion quarks. It should be noted that this is an approximate number, based on the length of an up-quark or a down-quark. As well, the volume for the sun is also approximate.


How a barometer can be used to measure the vapor pressure of a liquid?

A mercury thermometer, that is a barometer can be used to measure vapor pressure. Initially, a proper temperature must be recorded. Then the liquid should be injected into the mercury column. This new measurement subtracted from the original will yield the vapor pressure of a liquid.

Beam bridges are easy, and simple to construct. If you keep the bridge relatively small in length it should be able to hold a decent amount of weight.


What should a barometer measure when there is a tornado?

If a tornado passes near or over a barometer, it will measure a very rapid drop in pressure. How much the pressure drops depends on the strength of the tornado and how close the center of it comes tot he barometer.

Barrel is 21.5 inches long. The attached link is an article on them, with photos. Using a barrel length of 21.5, you should be able to scale the approximate overall length from the photos.
