In a neutral atmosphere, where there is a significant amount of vertical mixing, the temperature decreases at a of approximately 6.5 K per km. The magnitude of be decrease in temperature as height increases is known as be lapse rate (I’). (The symbol is upper case Greek letter gamma.) Assume that be surface pressure is p0=1.013105Pa where T=293K and the lapse rate is (I=6.5Kkm) . Estimate the pressure 3.0 km above the surface of Earth.arrow_forward

When the water is warm, place a saucer filled with ice cubes on top of the container. As the water below is heated, droplets form at the bottom of the cold saucer and combine until they are large enough to fall, producing a steady “rainfall” as the water below is gently heated. How does this resemble, and how does it differ from, the way in which natural rain is formed?arrow_forward
