QUESTION:

Puffy cumulus clouds, which are made of water droplets, occur at lower altitudes in the atmosphere. Wispy cirrus clouds, which are made of ice crystals, occur only at higher altitudes. Find the altitude ?y (measured from sea level) above which only cirrus clouds can occur. On a typical day and at altitudes less than 11 km, the temperature at an altitude y? is given by ?T?? ?0 ?? y?, where? ?0 = 15.0°C and ??? = 6.0 C0/1000 m.

Consider a damped oscillator with p < No. There is a little difficulty defining the "period" r1 since the motion (5.38) is not periodic. However, a definition that makes sense is that r1 is the time between successive maxima of x (t). (a) Make a sketch of x (t) against t and indicate this definition
