Is the upper stratosphere colder then the lower stratosphere?
Yes, the upper stratosphere is colder than the lower stratosphere. This is because the stratosphere is heated from below by the Earth's surface, so as you move higher in the atmosphere, the temperature decreases. The temperature inversion between the lower and upper stratosphere is due to the absorption of solar radiation by ozone in the upper stratosphere.
Does the temperature rise or fall in the stratosphere?
The temperature does not fall in the stratosphere. The temperature rises considerably once you reach this part of the atmosphere. This is because this is where most of the sun's rays are collected before hitting the surface of the earth.
Does water particles fall to the earths surface after their temperature increases?
No when there density increases
What is the temperature of the planet vary with the distance of the sun?
In general terms, the surface temperature of a planet decreases as its distance from the sun increases. However, Venus is approx 90% further from the sun than Mercury. But, instead of the temperature being lower, it is approx 40% higher.
Is surface tension increases or decreases with increase in temperature?
it is because as temperature increases, the particles in the water surface move further apart thus reducing the surface tension
As elevation rises temperature does what?
In the troposphere, the temperature drops. In the stratosphere (layer above the troposphere) it increases with elevation. In the mesosphere, temperature drops again with elevation. In the theromosphere, it goes up again (to nearly stellar surface temperatures).
Calculate the surface area and the volume of the sphere of the stratosphere?
Unanswerable - the stratosphere is a region, not a set distance from earth and is not regular.
Is the upper stratosphere colder then the lower stratosphere?
Yes, the upper stratosphere is colder than the lower stratosphere. This is because the stratosphere is heated from below by the Earth's surface, so as you move higher in the atmosphere, the temperature decreases. The temperature inversion between the lower and upper stratosphere is due to the absorption of solar radiation by ozone in the upper stratosphere.
Which layer is temperature increasing with increasing altitude?
The layer in which temperatures increase with elevation is the troposphere. This is the layer above the surface of the Earth. The troposphere contains half of the Earth's atmosphere. Weather occurs in this layer.
What is the effect of increase of temperature on surface tension?
Surface tension decreases as temperature increases.
Does the temperature rise or fall in the stratosphere?
The temperature does not fall in the stratosphere. The temperature rises considerably once you reach this part of the atmosphere. This is because this is where most of the sun's rays are collected before hitting the surface of the earth.
If a surface absorbs insolation its temperature?
increases
What layer of the atmosphere decreases with increasing height?
As altitude increases the temperature in the troposphere and the mesosphere drop. In the troposphere the temperature drops because the air is becoming further away from it's source of heat, the earth's surface. In the mesosphere a drop in temperature occurs as altitude increases because air becomes further away from it's heat source, the ozone layer. The layers as they appear closest to the earth's surface and moving away are: troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere and thermosphere. Weather occurs only in the troposphere.
Does water particles fall to the earths surface after their temperature increases?
No when there density increases
What influences the rate of diffusion?
The rate of diffusion increases with temperature. The rate of diffusion also increases with the concentration gradient and the surface area.
When atmospheric pressure increases what happpens to the boiling temperature of a liquid?
The boiling temperature of a liquid increases as the gas pressure a the liquid's surface increases.
What is the temperature of the planet vary with the distance of the sun?
In general terms, the surface temperature of a planet decreases as its distance from the sun increases. However, Venus is approx 90% further from the sun than Mercury. But, instead of the temperature being lower, it is approx 40% higher.
