Question:

A Bourdon-type pressure gage is used to measure the pressure from a Pitot tube attached to the leading edge of an airplane wing. The gage is calibrated to read in miles per hour at standard sea level conditions (rather than psi). If the airspeed meter indicates \(150 \mathrm{mph}\) when flying at an altitude of \(10,000 \mathrm{ft}\), what is the true airspeed?
