Question 22
XE-HNAT2 marksNeeds review
Consider an atmospheric column of depth 300 m at the Earth’s surface with an average temperature of 300 K. If the temperature of the layer rises by ΔT = 10 °C, the layer depth
will increase by Δh. Assuming ΔT/T ≈ Δh/h, air density remains unchanged at 1 kg m⁻³ and g = 10 m s⁻², the change in surface pressure is ______ kg m⁻¹ s⁻².Log in to check the answer
