Chapter 19, Problem 7RQ

Create a program to determine whether a user-specified altitude [meters] is in the troposphere, lower stratosphere, or upper stratosphere. The program should include a check to ensure that the user entered a positive value less than 50,000. If a nonpositive value or a value of 50,000 or greater is entered, the program should inform the user of the error and terminate. If a positive value less than 50,000 is entered, the program should calculate and report the resulting temperature in units of degrees Celsius [°C] and pressure in units of kilopascals [kPa]. Use the following information where H is altitude in meters, T is temperature in °C, and P is pressure in kilopascals:

Troposphere: Altitude H < 11 ,000 m

P = 101.29 ( T + 273.1 288.08 ) 5.256 .

Lower Stratosphere: Altitude 11,000 m ≤; H, 25,000 m

p = 22.65e(1.73–0.00157 H)

Upper Stratosphere: Altitude 25,000 m ≤ ; H, 50,000m

P = 2.488 ( T + 273.1 216.6 ) 11.388
