    by surface tension‚ makes a barometer using a very small glass tube‚ having a diameter d = 1.45mm‚ in order to save on the amount of mercury he needs. He reads the barometric pressure to be 7 519 mm Hg. a) W hat is the corresponding pressure in Pascal? b) W hat is the pressure after correction for the meniscus effect? (σ = 0.478 N/m‚ θcontact = 1390) 5- A vertical‚ clean‚ glass piezometer tube has an inside diamet er of 0.77 mm. When a pressure is applied‚ water at 330 C rises into the tube

    It is also known as the figurate triangle‚ the combinatorial triangle‚ and the binomial triangle. Even though Pascal’s Triangle is named after seventeenth century mathematician‚ Blaise Pascal‚ several other mathematicians knew about and applied their knowledge of the triangle hundreds of years before the birth of Pascal in 1623. The Arabs‚ Persians and the Chinese discovered Pascal’s triangle in earlier centuries. The earliest depictions of a triangle of binomial coefficients occur in the tenth

    The existence of God has always been a commonly asked question in the world today. Since there is no scientifically proven answer‚ arguments have been accumulated over time. One being the Pascal Wager’s argument. This theory states that either God exists or God does not exist‚ you can either wager for God or wager against God. This belief advocates the belief in God rather than providing evidence. Does Pascal’s Wager commit the fallacy of appealing to consequences? Each individual mental processes
