  2. Density of air - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density_of_air

    At IUPAC standard temperature and pressure (0 °C and 100 kPa), dry air has a density of approximately 1.2754 kg/m 3. At 20 °C and 101.325 kPa, dry air has a density of 1.2041 kg/m 3. At 70 °F and 14.696 psi, dry air has a density of 0.074887 lb/ft 3.

  3. Mass versus weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_versus_weight

    Conventional mass is defined as follows: "For a mass at 20 °C, 'conventional mass' is the mass of a reference standard of density 8,000 kg/m 3 which it balances in air with a density of 1.2 kg/m 3." The effect is a small one, 150 ppm for stainless steel mass standards, but the appropriate corrections are made during the manufacture of all ...

  4. Archimedes' principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archimedes'_principle

    Buoyancy force = weight of object in empty space − weight of object immersed in fluid. The final result would be measured in Newtons. Air's density is very small compared to most solids and liquids. For this reason, the weight of an object in air is approximately the same as its true weight in a vacuum.

  6. Barometric formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barometric_formula

    = molar mass of Earth's air: 0.0289644 kg/mol; The value of subscript b ranges from 0 to 6 in accordance with each of seven successive layers of the atmosphere shown in the table below. The reference value for ρ b for b = 0 is the defined sea level value, ρ 0 = 1.2250 kg/m 3 or 0.0023768908 slug/ft 3.

  7. Relative density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_density

    The relative density of gases is often measured with respect to dry air at a temperature of 20 °C and a pressure of 101.325 kPa absolute, which has a density of 1.205 kg/m 3. Relative density with respect to air can be obtained by =, where is the molar mass and the approximately equal sign is used because equality pertains only if 1 mol of the ...

  8. Bernoulli's principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernoulli's_principle

    If mass density is ρ, the mass of the parcel is density multiplied by its volume m = ρA dx. The change in pressure over distance d x is d p and flow velocity v = ⁠ d x / d t ⁠ . Apply Newton's second law of motion (force = mass × acceleration) and recognizing that the effective force on the parcel of fluid is − A d p .

  9. Balanced flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balanced_flow

    The density of (dry) air at 500 meter above the mean sea level is 1.167 kg/m 3 according to its equation of state. Secondly, let the pressure force driving the flow be measured by a rate of change taken as 1hPa/100 km (an average value).
