If the atmospheric pressure at Mangamaunu Beach is 1000 millibars and we assume the general guideline that atmospheric pressure

decreases by approximately 50% for every 5-kilometer increase in altitude, what will the atmospheric pressure be at the summit of Manakau?

Answer:

Atmospheric Pressure = 739.2 millibars

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question one should assume that Mangamaunu Beach is at sea level ( altitude = 0 m) and that the summit of Manakau is at 2608 meters.

The change in atmospheric pressure with altitude in the first 5 km can be roughly represented by a linear relationship with slope "m" as follows

(500-1000) = m(5000 - 0)\\m = -0.10

Giving the following equation:

(Pressure - 1000) = -0.10Height

Applying for Height = 2608 m

Pressure = -0.10(2608) + 1000\\Pressure = 739.2 millibars

Which sum or difference identity would you use to verify that cos (180° - q) = -cos q?
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

\cos (a-b)=\cos a \cos b+\sin a \sin b

Step-by-step explanation:

 Given : \cos (180^{\circ}-q)=-\cos q

We have to write which identity we will use to prove the given statement.

Consider \cos (180^{\circ}-q)=-\cos q

Take left hand side of given expression \cos (180^{\circ}-q)

We know

\cos (a-b)=\cos a \cos b+\sin a \sin b

Comparing , we get, a= 180° and b = q

Substitute , we get,

\cos (180^{\circ}-q)=\cos 180^{\circ}  \cos (q)+\sin q \sin 180^{\circ}

Also, we know \sin 180^{\circ}=0 and \cos 180^{\circ}=-1

Substitute, we get,

\cos (180^{\circ}-q)=-1\cdot \cos (q)+\sin q \cdot 0

Simplify , we get,

\cos (180^{\circ}-q)=-\cos (q)

Hence, use difference identity to  prove the given result.
