If the air temperature is 73°F at sea level, what is the temperature at the top of Pike's Peak (elevation 14,000 ft)? (Hint: The temperature decreases rather uniformly in the troposphere.)
_______ °F
temperature decrease in clear dry weather is governed by what’s known as the “Dry Adiabatic Lapse Rate,” or
about 9.8 °C/km
or (5.38 °F per 1,000 ft)
so at the altitude of 14000 ft , temperature will decrease by 14 x 5.38 oF
so, temperature decreases by 75.32 oF.
Tf = 73 oF - 75.3 oF
Tf = -2.3 oF . Answer

If air at sea level with a temperature of 27degrees C is forced up a mountain slope and the air's dew point at the condensation level is 14degrees C, at what elevation will condensation begin?
You wish to use a barometer to determine your elevation above sea-level. Local weather reports indicate that the temperature is 85°F and sea-level pressure is 30.25 inHg. If your barometer reads a pressure of 22.4 inHg, what is your elevation above sea level? Assume a temperature lapse-rate of m = 0.00357°F/ft, and a linear temperature-altitude relationship (T = T0 − mz).
Assuming that the air follows the adiabatic lapse rate, what should be the temperature on top of Mount Everest (8848m) if sea level is at 298K?
At sea level, water boils at 100 °C, and the absolute atmospheric pressure is 101 kPa. As the atmospheric pressure above water decreases, the temperature required for boiling also decreases, at a rate of 3.1 kPa per "C. For the system shown below: a. What is the absolute atmospheric pressure at an elevation of 4100 m, assuming a constant unit weight of air of 11.80 N/m3? b. What will be the boiling temperature for water at this elevation? Elev. =...
The atmospheric pressure varies proportionally from sea level to height, and the air temperature drops by 6K for every T km increase (a) Draw a cylindrical volume that is height inside the atmosphere, and then calculate the pressure change and expression (dP/dy-pg) depending on the height. (b) obtain the temperature change of the atmosphere accordingto the height y(km) in the place where the sea level (y-0) is at ToK temperature. (c) obtain a barometric equation which allows for the change...
