what did you get?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
for this problem, i have never seen before i dont even think we went over this in class
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
what happens when you plug in n = 6198

oh wait i was thinking of a different problem
i got it to equal P=P0e^-0.74376
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
e^-0.74376 = ???
OpenStudy (anonymous):
is that going to come out to an actual number?
OpenStudy (gorv):
that will be (p/p0) *100
OpenStudy (gorv):
p is pressure at height
and p0 at sea level

OpenStudy (gorv):
in your equation bring p0 on left hand side and multipy whole equation by 100 abd put value of h and calculate
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
yes e^(-0.74376) will give some number
since e = 2.718 approximately

-6.35

wait wrong
OpenStudy (anonymous):
0.475

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
so you end up with P = 0.475*p0
effectively saying that the pressure at height h = 6198 meters is roughly 47.5% of the pressure at sea level
OpenStudy (anonymous):
awesome so for the second one it would be 23.7%
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
getting the same
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
so yeah
OpenStudy (anonymous):
