The greatest source of moisture entering the atmosphere is evaporation from what surface?
Large body of water surface
Where is the atmospheric pressure the greatest?
Near the earth's surface.
What happens when the atmospheric pressure is greatest near the Earths surface?
Air pressure is always greater nearer the earth surface than at altitude due to the mass of air above.
What is the atmospheric cycle?
The atmospheric cycle is the exchange of heat between the sun and the surface of the earth. It is these atmospheric cycles that determine the weather.
Has atmospheric pressures at its surface that are roughly comparable to those at Earth's surface?
Titan
What effect does surface area have on evaporation?
The greater the surface area, the greater the rate of evaporation under identical atmospheric conditions.
The greatest source of moisture entering the atmosphere is evaporation from what surface?
Large body of water surface
Is evaporation a surface phenomenon?
Evaporation is greatest at the surface. The wind and sun and, boiling water on a kitchen stove, all increase the evaporation rate of the water - which is the process of turning liquid water into a water vapour.
Where is the atmospheric pressure the greatest?
Near the earth's surface.
What is the Atmospheric condition in which warm air traps cooler air near Earth's surface?
Temperature Inversion
Why is atmospheric pressure greatest at the surface of earth?
Atmospheric pressure is greatest at the surface of the Earth because there is more air above pushing down. As you move higher in the atmosphere, there is less air above, resulting in lower atmospheric pressure. Gravity also plays a role in compressing the air molecules closer to the Earth's surface, increasing the pressure.
Does evaporation of water happen at the surface?
Evaporation occur at the surface of water.
What happens when the atmospheric pressure is greatest near the Earths surface?
Air pressure is always greater nearer the earth surface than at altitude due to the mass of air above.
Why is it that the larger the surface area the higher the evaporation?
That's because evaporation occurs at the surface.
What is the relationship between surface area and rate of evaporation?
Evaporation is a process that takes place at the surface of a liquid, therefore the rate of evaporation is directly related to the surface area. Twice as much surface area will give you twice as much evaporation.
Why is it important to know which evaporates first in salt water or fresh water?
Water Evaporation is a process depends on certain environmental conditions like temperature, atmospheric humidity, surface area etc. and the salt content dos not have any bearing on evaporation
What is vaporization at the surface of a liquid that is not boiling?
Evaporation
