Questions Related to devices to measure pressure

Positive and negative ions are produced in the atmosphere due to cosmic rays from space and also due to radioactive element in the soil . in some region in the atmosphere the electric field strength is 100 V/m in the vertically downwaeds direction. This field exerts force on the positive and negative ions in the given region in atmosphere . as a result, positive ions , having a density $ 500/cm^3 $ drift downward while negative ions , havig a density $ 300/cm^3 $ drift upward al these ions are singly charged. it is observed that the conductivity in the given region is $ 4 \times 10^{-13} $ $ (\Omega -m)^{-1} $ . find the average speed of ions, assuming it to be the same for positive and negative ions.

An air tight container having a lid with negligible mass and a area of $8 c m^{2}$ is partially evacuated . If a 40N force is require to pull a lid off the container and the atmospheric pressure is $ 1.0 \times 10^{5} \mathrm{Ps}$ ,the presure in the container before it is opened must be

physics fluid pressure pressure in air introduction to atmospheric pressure pressure exerted by air devices to measure pressure

  1. 0.6atm

  2. 0.5atm

  3. 0.4atn

  4. 0.2atm

Show answer
Correct Option: C
Explanation:
The pressure inside the container must be equal to the pressure developed by force applied and the atmospheric force would oppose the pull,

So,

$P _{external}=P _{inside}+P _{atmosphere}$

$=\dfrac{48}{0.008}=P _{inside}+1\times 10^5$

$P _{inside}=0.6\times 10^5-1\times 10^5$

$P _{inside}=-0.4\times 10^5\,Ps=0.4\,atm$
