Answer:

at an altitude of 16 kilometers the temperature of tropopause is -79° C.

Explanation:

Given that:

The surface temperature = 25° C

Vertical constant environmental Lapse Rate ( Change in temperature with height) = 6.5° C/km

Altitude of tropopause = 16 kilometers

It is pertinent to understand that as we move higher up to the tropopause ; temperature decreases.

SO;  we need to  subtract the change in temperature from surface temperature

Thus; Air temperature at tropopause = Surface temperature - (Change in temperature till the altitude of tropopasue)

Air temperature at tropopause =  Surface temperatue - (Lapse Rate × Altitude)

Air temperature at tropopause =  25° C - (6.5 ° C/km  ×  16 km)

Air temperature at tropopause =  25° C -  104° C)

Air temperature at tropopause = -79° C

Thus; at an altitude of 16 kilometers the temperature of tropopause is -79° C.

Why has indonesia been giving away free land
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

On May 14 Indonesia’s constitutional court ruled to modify the language of a 1999 law, effectively placing millions of hectares of previously government-controlled forest land back into the hands of Indigenous Peoples.

The ruling clarified Indonesia’s classification of forest land, separating state forests from public forests and dividing public forests into either customary or individual forests. Previously, all customary forests had been under state control; now, the rights for customary forests have been handed back to the Indigenous inhabitants.

I love him. He's probably my favorite author ever! :)

As for your second question:

Everything you need to make a good  meaningful sentence (and grammatically correct, of course), is to follow common rules. Do not forget to provide your sentence with complexity, but you don't have to make them too complicated, I mean you need to use key words, they will make your thought completed. And the second point is that you need to properly organize the sentence using correct word order.
