Question

Height of Mount Fuji is 3,776 m. Its base is at an elevation of 2,077 m. The
temperature here drops at the rate of 1°C per 100 meters. If the temperature
at the base is -3°C, what is temperature at the top?
a.-19.99°C
b.-24.84°C
c.-12.66°C
d.-15.62°C​

Answer 1

Temperature at the top of Mount Fuji  =  -19.99°C    if temperature drops at the rate of 1°C per 100 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Height of Mount Fuji is 3,776 m. Its base is at an elevation of 2,077 m.

=> Distance = 3776 - 2077  =  1699 m

temperature drops at the rate of 1°C per 100 meter

=> temperature drops in 1699 m  = (1/100) * 1699  = 16.99 °C

Temperature at top = - 3 - 16.99 °C

= -19.99°C

temperature at the top =  -19.99°C
