Question

The mean sustained wind velocity, v, can be determined by the equation v = 6.3 StartRoot 1013 minus p EndRoot, where p is the air pressure, in millibars, at the center of the hurricane. What is the approximate air pressure at the center of a hurricane when the mean sustained wind velocity is 64 meters per second? 103 millibars 194 millibars 363 millibars 910 millibars

Answer 1

Answer: 910

Step-by-step explanation: Did the review and got it right

Answer 2

910 millibars

Explanation:

According to the Question,

• Given That, The mean sustained wind velocity equation
  `v=6.3*√(1013-p)` And The mean sustained wind velocity is 64m/s (v=64) . where, p is the air pressure(in millibars).

Now, the air pressure at the center of a hurricane when the mean sustained wind velocity is 64 m/s is

`64=6.3*√(1013-p)\\(64)/(6.3) = √(1013-p)\\`

on squaring both sides we get,

(10.1587)² = 1012 - p ⇒ p = 908.80≈910millibar

p = 910millibars air pressure .
