Info about the Troposphere?

Well,it is the first "sphere" in earth's atmosphere. Also where we see weather. Planes do fly in the troposphere. ( the air we breathe, it's in the troposphere )


Which is the lowest layer of the atmosphere?

The troposphere is the lowest layer of Earthâ??s atmosphere. The troposphere is the layer right above the surface of the Earth and this is the place where weather takes place.


What is found in the troposphere?

The troposphere is the lowest layer of the atmosphere, the one in which people and plants and animals live. Almost all the water vapor in the atmosphere is found in the troposphere, some as cloud layers. The troposphere is therefore the location of almost all weather.


How many layers do we have where the airplane flies and their names?

Most planes fly in one layer of the atmosphere called the troposphere. High flying aircraft can fly into the stratosphere


Into which layer of the atmosphere are jet airplane able to travel?

The stratosphere


What layer do jets and planes fly in?

Stratosphere and Troposphere


Do airplanes fly above the atmosphere or below?

Airplanes fly inside the atmosphere which is made up of 4 levels. The atmosphere starts at sea or ground level and when it ends you are in outer space (no longer on earth). Majority of all planes fly in the first level of the atmosphere called the Troposphere which ends around 50K feet. Military jets and spy planes usually fly in the second atmosphere called the stratosphere.


What objects are founds in troposphere?

People, planes and weather clouds


Which layer of the atmosphere do jet planes fly in upper troposphere or lower statospher or upper statosphere?

To avoid turbulence, most commercial jets fly in the upper layer of the troposphere, which varies in height depending on latitude, typically 40,000 feet (5 km). This is on the border of the tropopause, just above the troposphere, and the lower layer of the stratosphere in some cases.


What are the benefits of flying long distance plans in the troposphere?

dont you mean planes


Which 2 minor layers are actually part of a major layer?

Troposphere and stratosphere are the minor layers of Earth's atmosphere. The troposphere is where weather occurs, and it is the closest to the Earth. The stratosphere is the second closest and where planes fly. It is 40 kilometers thick, and the troposphere is 12 kilometers thick.


What particular layer to the atmosphere to do jet plane pass by?

They generally fly in the troposphere at lower levels and the stratosphere while cruising, which are the first and second sections of the atmosphere. The begining of the stratosphere can start at varying levels. At the poles you can hit it as soon as 7000 meters, so often planes will fly into this second layer of our atmosphere.
