​Suppose the Surface Air Temperature Is 66 $\degree$ F If the Base of a Cumulus Congestus Cloud Directly

Multiple Choice

​Suppose the surface air temperature is 66 $\degree$ F. If the base of a cumulus congestus cloud directly above you is 2,000 feet, what would be the approximate temperature at an altitude of 5,000 feet above you inside the cloud? (Hint: the dry adiabatic rate is 5.5 $\degree$ F per 1,000 feet, the moist adiabatic rate is 3.0 $\degree$ F per 1,000 feet.)

A) ​55 $\degree$ F
B) ​49 $\degree$ F
C) ​46 $\degree$ F
D) ​41 $\degree$ F
E) ​32 $\degree$ F
