Why? 2002 9.0 18.5 2399 6.6 22.9 2599 5.5 23.1 2999 2.8 29.1 3400 1.8 35.9 C) What about wind speed? Why? 3800 -0.1 46.9 4001 -1.1 40.0 4600 -4.1 50.6 5002 -6.6 49.9 Now, plot the temperature and wind speed versus height and then 5401 -9.1 48.2 answer the following. Note: for every 1 degree Celsius change in temp- 5801 -12.3 39.9 erature the change is 1.8 degrees Fahrenheit, or 18 F per 10 C. You should 6200 -15.3 44.8 already know the freezing temperature of pure water in both units! 6600 -18.5 42.5 Also note that 1 mile = 1610 meters.
