Unit 5

|1. |Rising air expands and cools; sinking air is compressed and warms. Typically, the size of the temperature change is: |
| |A. |
| |5oF/1000 ft change in elevation going up, and 3oF/1000 ft coming down |
| | |
| |B. |
| |Zero if cooling of the air is causing vapor to condense and form rain clouds, and 5oF/1000 ft change in elevation if clouds |
| |are not forming |
| | |
| |C. |
| |5oF/1000 ft change in elevation |
| | |
| |D. |
| |No temperature change occurs when air moves vertically |
