Atmospheric

Air pressure decreases with increasing altitude (at constant temperature) by approximately 1.2% per 100m. At sea level, i.e., a normal atmospheric pressure of approximately 1,000 hPa is assumed. The altitude of Lomnický štít is approximately 2,600 meters.
What is the atmospheric pressure at the top of Lomnický štít?

Correct answer:

p =  731 hPa

Step-by-step explanation:

q=11001.2=250247=0.988  p0=1000 hPa  r=2600/100=26  p=p0 qr=1000 25024726=731 hPa
