A) calculate the dry - adiabatic lapse rate for the earth’s troposphere in [ 0 k/km] given: = 7 5 , = 980 cm/ , = 50.1 x 10^−24 and

= 1.38 x 10^−16 /k respectively.

b) challenge question: if the parcel contains a lot of water vapor, as it rises further in altitude the parcel gets saturated with water vapor. the vapor eventually condenses to liquid droplets thereby releasing latent heat of condensation lowering the rate of cooling. this wet/moist adiabatic lapse rate is found to be smaller than the dry adiabatic lapse rate. calculate the wet/moist adiabatic lapse rate for the earth’s troposphere using the equation derived in the class.

given: t = 280 k, =1 =8.3 x10^7 erg/k/mole,

= 3 x10^7 =2 x 10^10 erg/g, = 5.1 x 10^11 / = 30.6 x10^− 24

One of the brightest comets of the 20th century was comet hyakutake, which passed close to the sun in early 1996. the orbital period of this comet is estimated to be about 30,000 years. find the semi-major axis of this comet’s orbit. compare it to the average sun-pluto distance and to the distance to alpha centauri, the nearest star to the sun, which is 4.3 light-years distant.
