Explanation / Answer

1) The surface air pressure is 1013mb which is normally taken as 1000mb.

2) the dew point temperature at 500mb is - 50oC.

3) at 100mb, we will find tropopause.

4) yes, this balloon can pass through cloud when it ascend. It is mainly used to find the wind direction and wind speed.

5)?
