Density and pressure in Earths atmosphere are proportional: where is a constant and g is
Chapter 15, Problem 68(choose chapter or problem)
Density and pressure in Earths atmosphere are proportional: where is a constant and g is the gravitational acceleration. (a) Integrate Equation 15.2 for this case to show that atmospheric pressure as a function of height h above the surface is given by where is the surface pressure. (b) At what height will the pressure have dropped to half its surface value?
