Give me right solution.
Determine the altitude of the atmosphere above sea level in meters if the atmosphere has an absolute pressure of 23 kPa, abs. and the atmospheric pressure at sea level is 101.325 kPa, absolute and temperature of 15 ⁰C. The gas constant of air is 286.9 joule per kilogram per degree kelvin. Assume the condition isisothermal.
On a sea-level standard day, a pressure gage, mooredbelow the surface of the ocean (SG = 1.025), readsan absolute pressure of 1.4 MPa. How deep is theinstrument?( a ) 4 m, ( b ) 129 m, ( c ) 133 m, ( d ) 140 m, ( e ) 2080 m
As measured by NASA’s Viking landers, the atmosphereof Mars, where g ≈ 3.71 m/s 2 , is almost entirely carbondioxide, and the surface pressure averages 700 Pa. The temperatureis cold and drops off exponentially: T ≈ T o e - Cz ,where C = 1.3E-5 m - 1 and T o = 250 K. For example,at 20,000 m altitude, T ≈ 193 K. ( a ) Find an analyticformula for the variation of pressure with altitude.( b ) Find the altitude where pressure on Mars has droppedto 1 pascal.
