1. QUES 1: Using EXCEl, calculate the pressure of nitrogen gas at three different temperatures
250K, 350K and 400K as a function of height using the barometric formula P=PoExp(-Mgh/RT)
Also plot the ratio of P/Po versus the height of the column at these temperatures 250K, 350K
and 400K. Po is the pressure of the gas at the bottom of the column. Altitude ranges from
0 to 1000m
Po= 101325Pa
R= 8.314 Pa M3
