Given information
Given that the rate of change of atmospheric pressure with respect to altitude is proportional to ,
Provided that the temperature is constant.
Given at the pressure is at sea level and at
Step-by-step explanation
Step 1.
Analyze the given data the rate of change of atmospheric pressure with respect to altitude is proportional to , where the temperature is constant.
Thus write
Given at the pressure is at sea level and at
Therefore,
