Question:

As the atmospheric temperature and pressure vary with elevation, the air density varies and the pressure is therefore not linear in elevation, as it is in a liquid. Develop an expression for the pressure variation containing an integral over an expression containing T. Start with Eq. 1.2 in differential form and use the ideal gas law, assuming we know the temperature as a function of elevation T(h).
