The Launch Pad 1/1 80 – (5.5 x 20) = -30 degrees Wednesday, 3/28/18 As you ascend up into the troposphere, temperature decreases with altitude, which is referred to as the environmental lapse rate. A dry lapse rate of 5.5°F/1,000 ft. is often used to calculate temperature changes in air not at 100% relative humidity. A wet lapse rate of 3°F/1,000 ft. is used to calculate the temperature changes in air that is saturated (i.e., air at 100% relative humidity). Knowing this, what is the temperature at 20,000 feet over an area of land that has a temperature of 80 degrees on a dry day. 80 – (5.5 x 20) = -30 degrees groundwater
