They will do so give an adequate supply of oxygen. 2) Exposure to high altitude could theoretically improve an athlete’s capacity to exercise. Exposing the body to high altitude causes it to acclimatise to the lower level of oxygen available in the atmosphere. Many of the changes that occur with acclimatisation improve the delivery of oxygen to the muscles -the theory being

sound is extremely interesting‚ as it’s actually the speed of transmission of a small disturbance through a medium. The speed of sound occurs constantly‚ whenever a sound is heard. It’s everywhere‚ and in air we are discovering certain factors like altitude and air density. The speeds in ideal gases and air have their own formulas: Thus‚ For a gas the K is given by the formula above‚ and the C is the coefficient of stiffness in solids. Thus the second formula is given.

of the atmosphere listed from lowest altitude to highest altitude are the troposphere‚ stratosphere‚ mesosphere and thermosphere. The troposphere extends from the Earths surface up to about 14 kilometers in altitude. All human activities occur in the troposphere. The troposphere is the layer where all weather we experience takes place. It is a thin layer of the atmosphere. The warmest part of the troposphere is at the bottom. Commonly in the troposphere‚ altitude increases as temperature decreases

boundary – a pause. Distinct temperature differences are found within each layer. For example‚ at the stratopause‚ the temperature stops increasing with altitude. The overlying mesosphere does not absorb solar radiation‚ so the temperature decreases with altitude. At the mesopause‚ the temperature begins to increase with altitude‚ and this trend continues in the thermosphere. Because the atmosphere in the thermosphere is so thin‚ a thermometer cannot be used to measure the temperature accurately

Chapter – 3 ALTIMETER Principle of operation: A simple altimeter consists of a thin corrugated metal capsule which is partially evacuated‚ sealed and prevented from collapsing completely by means of a leaf spring. In some cases complete collapsing is prevented by its own rigidity. The capsule is mounted inside a case. The case is fed with static pressure from aircraft static tube/ vent. As the aircraft climbs the static pressure in the case decreases allowing the spring to

Find the orbital period of a satellite if the perigee and apogee altitudes are 250 km and 300 km‚ respectively. 3. Find the maximum and minimum orbital speed of the Earth if the eccentricity of the Earth’s orbit around Sun is 1/60. What is the mean speed if the mean radius is 1 AU?
