The shell of a hen’s egg can withstand a pressure of up to about 30 N/mm 2 . 1) Convert this pressure into pascals.
2) Write your answer to part 1 in kPa (kilopascals).
3) Write your answer to part 1 in MPa (megapascals).

The average atmospheric pressure on earth is approximated as a function of altitude by the relation patm = 101.325 (1 − 0.02256z)5.256, where patm is the atmospheric pressure in kpa, and z is the altitude in km with z = 0 at sea level. determine the approximate atmospheric pressures at atlanta (z = 306 m), denver (z = 1610 m), mexico city (z = 2309 m), and the top of mount everest (z = 8848 m).
