Determine the atmospheric pressure at the top of a 40 m hill if at its foot it is 50 mm.

We accept the value of the change in atmospheric pressure by 1 mm Hg with an increase in height by 10 meters.

In this case, the difference in atmospheric pressure at the foot and at the top of the hill will be:

40/10 = 4 mm Hg

The atmospheric pressure at the top of the hill will be:

50 – 4 = 46 mm Hg

Answer:

Atmospheric pressure at the top of the hill is 46 mm Hg.
