We could use the change of pressure to calculate for the height climbed by the mountain hiker. The change of pressure is given by
p = rho * g * h, where p is the change of pressure, rho is the air density, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height.
Using the conversion 1 mbar = 100 Pa,
(930 - 780)(100) = (1.20)(9.80)h
15000 = 1.20*9.80*h
h = 1.28 km
Vapor pressure<span> or equilibrium </span>vapor pressure<span> is defined as the </span>pressure<span> exerted by a </span>vapor<span> in thermodynamic equilibrium with its condensed phases at a certain temperature. It is independent with atmospheric pressure since it does not change by changing the atmospheric pressure only. </span>

Question:
A spaceship enters the solar system moving toward the Sun at a constant speed relative to the Sun. By its own clock, the time elapsed between the time it crosses the orbit of Jupiter and the time it crosses the orbit of Mars is 35.0 minutes
How fast is the spaceship traveling towards the Sun? The radius of the orbit of Jupiter is 43.2 light-minutes, and that of the orbit of Mars is 12.6 light-minutes.
Answer:
S = 5.508 × 10¹¹m
V = 2.62 × 10⁸ m/s
Explanation:
The radius of the orbit of Jupiter, Rj is 43.2 light-minutes
radius of the orbit of Mars, Rm is 12.6 light-minutes
Distance travelled S = (Rj - Rm)
= 43.2 - 12.6 = 30.6 light- minutes
= 30.6 × (3 ×10⁸m/s) × 60 s
= 5.508 × 10¹¹m
time = 35mins = (35 × 60 secs)
= 2100 secs
speed = distance/time
V = 5.508 × 10¹¹m / 2100 s
V = 2.62 × 10⁸ m/s
