Question

For temperature in the range [- 50, 150] (degrees Celsius), the
pressure in a certain closed container of gas changes linearly with the temperature. Suppose that a 40° increase in temperature causes the pressure to increase by 30 millibars.
(a) What is the rate of change of the pressure with respect to the temperature?
( b) What change of temperature would cause the pressure to drop by 9 millibars?

Answer 1

Answer:

Weather. Weather patterns are a common cause in barometric pressure drops. When low-pressure weather systems move in over a certain area, not only is pressure in the atmosphere shifted, but it causes the barometric pressure reading to drop. A low-pressure system indicates that low-pressure air rises and begins to cool.
