This does sound right, though I can't back it up very solidly. Is there a way you know of that this couples to Henry's Law?

I believe the equation should be valid for 760mmHg. If you go by Henry's Law, you'd be able to determine concentration of gases at various partial pressures no problem, but you'd be out a salinity term. Regardless, an actual pressure compensation isn't present in the equation, and I'm...

Would I use dalton's law at that point? Or would I calculate the average molar mass for R_specific, then determine each gas' moles from their respective partial pressures?

But say it was a gas mixture or oxygen, nitrogen, argon, hydrogen, etc. all at different partial pressures, would I use partial pressures then?

So I would determine the volume of gas present by multiplying my sample volume by beta to get mL of gas, convert to m^3 for V, and use the partial pressure of oxygen for P? Or rather the pressure of the environment?

I've been reading about calculating dissolved gas concentrations in water at varying temperature and salinities using an equation of the form: ln(β)=exp(A1 + A2*(T/100) + A3*ln(T/100) + A4*(T/100) + S*(B1 + B2*(T/100) + B3*(T/100)^2 where β is in units of mL/L, and A# and B# are...

Say two stationary spheres are struck by a third moving sphere (each different masses), such that they are both hit at the same time and at the same magnitude angle, and coefficient of restitution e is known. If I want to calculate the velocity of each sphere, would the conservation of momentum...

Thank you for your response. The wire is internal to the cylinder, yes. There are a number of other forces that could be acting on the cylinder, but they aren't important right now, I can take those into account when I figure this problem out first. There is one other force due to another...

Homework Statement I was hoping you'd be able to help me out with a mechanics question. This isn't a homework question, more an independent design question, so the information on the problem will be primarily symbolic. I'm trying to model the force that the cable passing through the cylinder...
