Question:
A truck leaves Denver (elevation 5280 ft) on a day when thetemperature is 80F and the barometric pressure is 24.8 in Hg. Ittravels over Vail Pass (elevation 10600 ft) where the temperatureis 62F. The temperature is assumed to be a linear function ofaltitude. We can also assume that the air behaves as a perfect gas.a.) Find the atmospheric pressure at Vail Pass b.) Find the percentchange in air density between Denver and Vail Pass P = rho*R*T withtemperature in kelvin dP/dz = -rho*g
