To find the ratio of air density at Kalka to the air density at Simla, we can use the ideal gas law and the formula for density derived from it. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Convert Temperatures to Kelvin - The temperature at Simla is given as \(15.0^\circ C\). \[ T_{Simla} = 15 + 273 = 288 \, K \] - The temperature at Kalka is given as \(35.0^\circ C\). ...
