2 A balloon is used for high altitude research, carrying a transmitter which passes ambient air temperature and pressure to a ground station. During the course of one particular flight, the signals indicate a temperature of -57 °C and a pressure of 11.6 kPa at a height (determined by theodolite) of 15 km. Some time later, visual contact has been lost, but the transmitter reports that the temperature is unchanged from the earlier reading, but the pressure has dropped to 620 Pa. Find the height of the balloon. [33.53 km]
