The of A 1. 12/13/17 ot 10 a See page 443 04 Question (1 point) The severity of a tropical storm is related to the depressed atmospheric pressure at its center. Shown below is a photograph of Typhoon Odessa taken ce shuttle Discovery in August 1985, when the maximum winds of the storm were about 90 mi/hr and the pressure was 40.0 mbar lower at the center than normal atmospheric pressure. In contrast, the central pressure of Hurricane Andrew was 90.0 mbar lower than its surroundings when it hit south Florida with winds as high as 165 mi/hr 2nd attempt See Periodic Table See Hint If a small weather balloon with a volume of 40.0L at a pressure of 1.00 atmosphere was deployed at the edge of Typhoon Odessa (in picture), what was the volume of the balloon when it reached the center? 43.90 1st attempt K0410> 8OF 10 VIEW SOLUTION SUBMIT ANSWER ALIEN WAREExplanation / Answer
1 atm = 1013.25 mbar
pressure at center = 1013.25 - 40 = 973.25 mbar
so that,
p1V1 = p2V2/
(1013.25*40 = V2*973.25)
V2 = vol of ballon at the center = 41.64 L
