Explain why (a) the blood pressure is humans is greater at the feet than at the brain. (b) Atmospheric pressure at a height of about 6 km decreases to nearly half its value at the sea level through the 'height' of the atmospheric is more than 100 km. (c) Hydrostatic pressure is a scalar quantity even though pressure is force divded by area , and force is a vector.

What is the lowest region of the atmosphere which extends upto a height of 10 km from sea level?

(a) Assume the atmosphere as an ideal gas in static equilibrium at constant temperature T0. The pressure on the ground surface is P0. The molar mass of the atmosphere is M. Calculate the atmospheric pressure at height h above the ground. (b) To be more realistic, let as assume that the temperature in the troposphere (lower part of the atmosphere) decreases with height as shown in the figure. Now calculate the atmospheric pressure at a height h0 above the ground.
