As dry air moves upward, it expands and in so doing cools at a rate of about 1C for each 100 meter rise, up to about 12 kilometers.
a)If the ground temperature is 20C, write a formula for the temperature at height "h".
b)What range of temperatures can be expected if a plane takes off and reaches a maximum height of 5 km?
I'm not sure on how to write a formula for this problem. Could someone please explain to me how to work this problem?
