The barometric pressure can be approximated by the equation P=A0*10-0.000058*A where A is the altitude, m, above sea level. At what altitude, m, will the pressure drop to ½ the sea level value? What is the air pressure, mm Hg, at 100 km altitude? Estimate the number of gallons of gasoline consumed by automobiles on an average day in the U.S.

Earth-Sun Relationships—Be able to use a calculator in order to calculate sun angles (altitude and zenith angle). Have a general understanding of earth-sun relationships, seasons, and the earth’s heat budget. In Collins Run, an Ordovician outcrop can be seen in which a layer of fossiliferous limestone has been deposited on a layer mudstone.

Looking at the horizon reference, I saw that the sun touched the mountains when the sun’s center was at an altitude of 1.15 degrees. Plugging 1.15 degrees into the “Altitude Calc.” sheet, I determined that the spring equinox sun set at an azimuth of 89.0 degrees, and the fall equinox sun at 88.4 degrees, for the mid-leap-year-cycle.

We’ll choose to determine the length of side b. We can solve this using the tangent function. The tangent of 5 degrees (angle BCA) is equal to c, which we know is 42.5 miles, divided by b (tan 5˚ = c/b). So b is equal to c divided by the tangent of 5 degrees (b = 42.5 tan 5˚). Using a calculator, the tangent of 5 degrees is 0.0875.

At noon, the sun is due south at its maximum altitude. Clocks show an arbitrary average legal civil time based on time zones, daylight savings and an instrument correction, the equation of time. Unfortunately you will need to be able to convert clock time to solar time to show that the sundial is correct.
