The height of the mountain is 5900 meters, the pressure at the top is unknown. What is the pressure at the top?

To solve this problem, you need to know the rules by which the pressure is at the top of the mountain and on the surface of the earth.

1. After 12 m, the pressure increases by 1 mm. rt. Art.

Pressure drop = 4900: 12 = 408.1 / 3

At sea level, the pressure is 7600 mm Hg. st

2. Next, we are looking for the pressure difference, this will be our answer

At an altitude of 4900 m = 760 – 408.33 = 351.67 mm Hg. Art.

Answer: 351.67 mm Hg. Art.
