Which layers of the atmosphere act like giant magnets?
the magnetosphere. it is earth's magnetic field
Is it warmer or cooler on a clear night?
Usually cooler. The clouds act as a blanket to keep the solar heat close to the surface.
Is earth an electromagnet?
a part of the earths structure causes it to act like an electromagnet
What happens to the temperature when clouds are out at night?
Its warmer. The heat from the Earth is kept in the atmostphere - they act as a blanket. However its colder when clouds are out in the day as the Suns heat can't get through.
How will burning be affected if nitrogen is not in air to act as a diluent for oxygen?
Nitrogen being diluent for the gases in our atmosphere reduces the combustion process as it dilutes the oxygen in the atmosphere, otherwise every combustion process will be very rapid and will start with a bang. :)
Why is the atmosphere called the cozy blanket?
the clouds in the atmosphere act as a blanket keeping warm air from escaping the atmosphere
How does carbon dioxide in the atmosphere act like a greenhouse?
Sunlight that travels from the sun, through the Earth's atmosphere and reaches the Earth will heat up the Earth, including the atmosphere.Carbon Dioxide then will act like a blanket to all this heat, keeping it from being expelled out of Earth's atmosphere and into space.That is the effect a greenhouse has with moderating the temperature for the incumbent vegetation.
What two things does momentum count on to keep in act?
Outside earths atmosphere its Gravity, and on Earth its Mass and Velocity.
What do ozone molecules act like?
Ozone molecules act like a blanket. They are the ones who protect us. The protection is against the UV rays.
Carbon dioxide and water vapor act like a blanket over the earth?
greenhouse effect
What are the problems of power stations?
The stations letting CO2 gas out to the atmosphere to act as a blanket or a green house so this makes our earth warmer and this stations damage our plants and animals.
How are volcanoes essential to earths survival?
However, volcanoes are essential to earths survival they act like a safety valve for the planet (it releases pressure)
Which layers of the atmosphere act like giant magnets?
the magnetosphere. it is earth's magnetic field
How does atmosphere act like a glass house?
by protecting the earth from the harmful UV rays
Is true that once the energy has left earths surface it can not be reabsorbed?
No. It is not true that once energy has left the earth's surface it can not be reabsorbed. Clouds overhead act like a blanket and reflect energy back to the earth's surface. As a result deserts are usually cooler at night than other areas at the same latitudes.
Why it is usually colder in clear nights than on nights witch cloudy skies?
Clouds act as a kind of blanket for our atmosphere, trapping in heat. A clear night does not retain as much heat, so tend to be colder.
How does the atmosphere on venus act like a greenhouse?
The atmosphere is very thick because of all the Carbon Dioxide. Therefore, it holds in the sun's heat which is not allowed to escape.
