Atmospheric

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

Final 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
