Assume a warm air parcel, at sea level, has a temperature of 21C (70F) and begins to rise upward.
 
  Assume it becomes saturated at 1000 m (3300 ft) altitude, and continues to rise to 2000 m (6600 ft.) altitude. What would the approximate temperature of the parcel be at an elevation of 2000 m (6600 ft.)?
  A) 9C (48.2F)
  B) 1C (33.7F)
  C) 8.6C (22.4F)
  D) 5C (46.4F)
  E) 8.2C (46.9F)

Question 2

If you visited Mount Shasta City (elevation 900 m 3000 ft.) and found the outside air temperature to be 27C (81F),
 
  what would be the air temperature at the summit of Mount Shasta (elevation 4200 m 14,000 ft.) at that momentassuming that the temperature conditions with altitude change at an average, or normal, lapse rate?
  A) 0.2C (32.0F)
  B) 5.9C (42.5F)
  C) -6C (20.5F)
  D) 48.1C (119.5F)

When Gabriel Fahrenheit invented the first mercury thermometer, he called "zero degrees" the lowest temperature he was able to attain with a mixture of ice and salt. For the upper point of his scale, he used 96°, which he measured as normal human body temperature (we know it to be 98.6° today because of more accurate thermometers).

Did you know?

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
