Answer:

24 degrees Fahrenheit.

Explanation:

The moist adiabatic rate is related to the variation of the temperature as the altitude increases.

A typical value is around 9ºF/km. This means that for each km, the temperature decreases 9ºF.

In this problem, we have that:

The temperature at the ground level is 60 degrees Fahrenheit.

So 4km above sea level it is going to be 60 - 4*9 = 24 degrees Fahrenheit.
