Answer :

batolisis

The width of the cloud is : 384 m

Given data :

Cloud altitude = 2200 m

Temperature = 10°

Determine how wide the cloud is

applying the equation below

I = d[tex](\frac{\alpha }{57.3})[/tex]

where : I = linear size , d = 2200 m ,  [tex]\alpha = 10^{o}[/tex]

therefore :

I = 2200 ( 10 / 57.3 )

 = 383.94 m

 ≈ 384 m

Hence we can conclude that the width of the cloud is : 384 m
