Set local ground level to 700 ft, and record the inches of mercury.

What is the altimeter reading in inches of mercury (from the Kollsman window)?

Respuesta :

MrRoyal

The altimeter reading is 29.17 from the Kollsman window is 29.17 in Hg

How to determine the altimeter reading?

The given parameters are:

  • Ground level = 700 ft i.e. the field elevation
  • Pressure altitude = 1450 ft

The formula to calculate the pressure altitude is:

Altitude = (29.92 – Altimeter reading) * 1,000 + Ground level

Substitute the known values

1450 = (29.92 - Altimeter reading) * 1000 + 700

Evaluate the like terms

750 = (29.92 - Altimeter reading) * 1000

Divide both sides by 1000

0.75 = 29.92 - Altimeter reading

Evaluate the like terms

Altimeter reading = 29.17

Hence, the altimeter reading is 29.17 from the Kollsman window is 29.17 in Hg
