Q.

On a sunny day, the temperature and pressure of atmosphere varying with height z from sea level as T=T0(1zz0) and P=P0(1zz0)α. Where T0 and z0, are 250C and 25 km. The temperature pressure and density of air at sea level is T0=25°C,P0=1 atm and 1.2 kg/m3 respectively. Assume that air follows ideal gas law in the given condition, i.e., ρTP =constant.
