Question 1
A hiker is using an aneroid barometer at sea level, and the pressure reading is 1015 hPa. If they ascend to a height of 1000 meters, what would you expect the new reading to be if the density of air decreases proportionally?
π‘ Hint: Use the known decrease in pressure with altitude!
Question 2
