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?

Answer 1

Given:

• The mean sustained wind velocity equation.
• The mean sustained wind velocity = 64 M/s

To Find:

• Approximate value of air pressure at the center of a hurricane.

Solution:

The mean sustained wind velocity equation

                   $v = 6.3\sqrt{1013-p}$

The Mean sustained wind velocity of hurricane = 64 m/s,

We can solve for the air pressure using the equation given below

             $64 = 6.3\sqrt{1013-p}$

             $\frac{64}{6.3} = \sqrt{1013-p}$

             Taking square  both sides

            $( 10.1587) ^2 = 1013 - p$

            $p = 910 millibars$

Thus, The air pressure  $p = 910 millibars$
