Question
Estimate the vapor pressure, air pressure, relative humidity, and air density at a height of 1500 m into the atmosphere. The total pressure is 100 kPa, air temperature is 28°C and the dew point temperature is 16°C near the ground, the lapse rate 6°C/km, which is constant for both air temperature and dew point temperature. The gas constant R is 287 J/kg-K and constant with respect to altitude.
Air Density at 1500m, in kg/m3
Round to three (3) decimal places
