Question

What do you mean by the term ‘lapse rate’? How is it expressed?

Answer 1

Answer:

lapse rate is that at which temperature changes with the height in the atmosphere lapse rate nomenclature is inversely related to the change itself. if the lapse rate is positive the temperature is decreases with height if it is negative then the temperature is increase with the height

hope it will help u dear

Answer 2

➤ Answer :-

⟶ Lapse Rate :-

• The Lapse Rate is the rate at which temperature changes with height in the Atmosphere.
• Lapse rate nomenclature is inversely related to the change itself: if the lapse rate is positive, the temperature decreases with height; conversely if negative, the temperature increases with height.

⟶ How is it expressed :-

• The dry adiabatic lapse rate may be calculated from basic physical principles.
• The actual measured rate at which air cools as it rises is called the ambient or prevailing lapse rate.
