Rising Column Creates Problem

There is wet wood burning in a fire place on the ground. Seven meters above ground, the smoke is at a temperature of t 7 = 4 0 C t_7=40'C . Disregard the exchange of heat with the surrounding air and assume that the the atmospheric pressure at the ground is constant in time and equal to p 0 = 1000 h P a p_0=1000hPa ; the air temperature t 0 = 2 0 C t_0=20'C is independent of height.Assume that the smoke represents an ideal gas of a molar mass μ = 29 g / m o l \mu=29g/mol (i.e equal to the molar mass of the air),and of a molar specific heat at constant volume C v = 2.5 R C_v=2.5R ; .How high will the smoke column rise.

Express your answer in m m .

Take R = 8.31 J / k g . K R=8.31J/kg.K


The answer is 1900.
