Gce Model Questions Vol1 2022 Geography Question 27
Practice objective / multiple choice question 27 from the 2022 Gce Model Questions Vol1 Geography examination.
Station X at sea level records an average summer temperature of \(30^{\circ}\text{C}\). Station Y, situated at an unknown altitude, records an average summer temperature of \(22^{\circ}\text{C}\). Assuming the temperature difference is solely due to altitude and using the standard environmental lapse rate of \(6.5^{\circ}\text{C}\) per 1000 m, (a) estimate the altitude of Station Y (to the nearest metre); (b) if Station Y receives 15 % less solar radiation because of cloud cover and each 1 % reduction in solar radiation lowers temperature by \(0.1^{\circ}\text{C}\), calculate the adjusted temperature at Station Y.
