The absorbance reported by the defective instrument was 0.3933.
Absorbance A = - log₁₀ T
Tm = transmittance measured by spectrophotometer
Tm = 0.44
Absorbance reported in this equipment = -log₁₀ (0.44) = 0.35654
True absorbance can be calculated by true transmittance, Tm = T+S(α-T)
S = fraction of stray light = 6%= 6/100 = 0.06
α= 1, ideal case
T = true transmittance of the sample
Tm = T+S(α-T)
now, T= Tm-S/ 1-S = 0.44-0.06/ 1-0.06 = 0.404233
therefore, actual reading measured is A = -log₁₀ T = -log₁₀ (0.404233)
i.e; 0.3933

Altitude is height above sea level. The density of air decreases with height. There are two reasons, at higher altitudes there is less air pushing down from above,and gravity is weaker farther from earths center.

Explanation: fart
<span><span>There is no formula. The speed of light is a fundamental constant which appears in other formulas but there’s no formula to compute the numerical value.Well, actually, that’s not quite right. The numerical value in meters per second is known exactly, because we use the speed of light to define the meter. It is: <span><span><span>c=299,792,458 m/s</span><span>c=299,792,458 m/s</span></span>
</span>. Exactly. But the thing is — this value is purely an artifact of our unit system. Other unit systems will give other values, so the number value is entirely arbitrary.</span></span>
