If the average (mass-weighted) temperature of a column of air between the ground (p=1000 hPa) and 500 hPa is 255K, then at what height would one find the 500 hPa level?
Suppose that a cloud forms between the ground and the 500 hPa pressure level. If latent heating in the cloud contributes a warming of 10K throughout the column then how much higher (in altitude) with the 500 hPa level be compared to the answer you gave above?
i
made one mistake p=500hpa and Po=1000hpa so p/Po=.5
and 2=e^(.01359h1) h1=51m
for case 2 same
2=e^(0.1307h2)
h2=53m

Potential temperature can be used to compare the temperature of air parcels that are at different levels in the troposphere. Since temperature tends to decrease with height, it is difficult to note which regions in the troposphere are experiencing warm and which cold advection. Bringing air parcels adiabatically to a standard level (1000 hPa) allows comparisons to be made between air parcels at different elevations. If the potential temperature of an air parcel at one pressure level is lower than...
Review Constants Periodic Table Air consists mostly of nitrogen (N), with a molecular mass of 28, and oxygen (O2), with a molecular mass of 32. A water molecule (H,O) has molecular mass 18. According to the ideal gas law (N/ V P /KT), dry air at a particular pressure and temperature has the same particle density (number of particles per unit volume) as humidait at the same pressure and temperature. Consequently, humidair, whose low-mass water molecules replace more massive nitrogen...
A temperature inversion is a situation where: Question 11 options: A) vertical motions are enhanced B) air quality is good C) temperature decreases with increasing altitude D) temperature increases with increasing altitude Question 12 (1 point) Both City A and City B are located at the same latitude. City A has a mean annual temperature of 27oC and a temperature range of 22oC. City B has a mean annual temperature of 26oC and a temperature range of 14oC. Which city is located in the interior of the...
An altimeter on a low-speed general aviation aircraft reads 1500 m. The outside air temperature (OAT) is observed to be 7.4°C. The aircraft’s pitot tube measures the pressure of 87050N/m 1. Assuming no calibration is required, at sea-level and under ISA conditions, equivalent airspeed (EAS) and indicated airspeed (IAS) are the same. At any other altitude, equivalent airspeed will be less than indicated airspeed. However, below speeds of approximately 200 knots IAS and at altitudes below 10,000', the difference between...
