Thunderstorms severe enough to produce hail develop when an upper-level low (a pool of cold air high in the atmosphere) moves through a region where there is warm, moist air at the surface. These storms create an updraft that draws the moist air into subfreezing air above 10,000 feet. Data from the National Weather Service indicates that the strength of the updraft, as measured by its speed s in mph, affects the size of the hail according to
h = 0.000595s1.922
where h is the diameter of the hail (in inches). Find and interpret h(100) and h(100).
