When climbing the mountain, atmospheric pressure changed from 752 mm. Hg at the base up to 729 mm Hg on the top. How high is the mountain? For every 12 m rise, atmospheric pressure decreases by 1 mm Hg.
Initial data: Pн (atmospheric pressure before climbing the mountain) = 752 mm Hg; Pk (atmospheric pressure after ascent) = 729 mm Hg; Δh (change in altitude depending on atmospheric pressure) = 12 m / 1 mm Hg
The height of the mountain is determined by the formula: H = (Рн – Рк) * Δh = (752 – 729) * 12 = 276 m.
Answer: The height of the mountain is 276 meters.
