What type of cloud has the lowest condensation level?

An approximate value can be calculated by the following expression: Condensation Level (in feet) = [Surface Temperature(F) - Surface Dew Point Temperature(F)]*(1000/2.2) or Condensation Level (in meters) = [Surface Temperature(C) - Surface Dew Point Temperature(C)]*(200) Solution: Dry Adiabatic Lapse Rate (DALR) => -5.5 F/1000 ft of altitude (-1C/100m) Saturated Adiabatic Lapse Rate (SALR) => -3.3F/1000ft of altitude (-0.5C/100m) The SALR is not linear and varies with the initial surface temperature The Level of Condensation will occur at the altitude where the Air Temperature is equal to the Dew Point temperature at that altitude. Setting the two equations equal to each other will give an approximate value. TA: temperature at altitude; TS: temperature at surface; DA: dew point temperature at altitude; DS: dew point temperature at surface TA = TS-(5.5F/1000ft)*altitude or TS-(1C/100m)*altitude DA = DS-(3.3F/1000ft)*altitude or DS-(0.5C/100m)*altitude Setting TA = DA and rearranging quantities gives the equations given above The level of condensation derived by the above method will only yield an approximate value.


Why potential temperature increases with height?

No, if you are referring to height above sea level, then it is the opposite way around. Approximately, for every 100m above sea level you go, the temperature drops around 0.7-1 degree celcius.

Does temperature go down as altitude increases?

Yes, on average, temperature decreases by 6.5°C per kilometer as altitude increases in the troposphere. This is known as the normal lapse rate. However, in some regions, temperature inversions can cause temperatures to increase with altitude.

Which 100m runner was a granddad when he competed?

The 100m runner who became a granddad while still competing at an elite level is Leroy Burrell. He was a prominent sprinter in the 1990s and famously set a world record in the 100m in 1994. Burrell continued to compete into his later years, even after becoming a grandfather, showcasing his enduring talent and commitment to the sport.
