Evaluate pressure and temperature of the air

Reference no: EM13557945

A warm air mass (T = 292) moves across North Carolina until it meets the Smokey Mountains. Then the air mass rises rapidly and adiabatically to 1900 m. Assuming that the atmosphere is composed of a diatomic gas with an average molar mass of 29 grams/mole, calculate pressure and temperature of the air at the new elevation.

A. Calculate the pressure at the given altitude using the above data.

B. Calculate the temperature following adiabatic expansion to the pressure calculated in part A
