What do we call the distance above sea level?
Altitude
What happens to the density of air as you go further below sea level altitude but in dry land?
Density always increases as altitude decreases. So the air density below sea level will be greater than the air density at sea level.
Why can you have the same type of contour line above and below sea level?
It means the same thing.
What is the altitude of Badwater Basin California?
It is 282 feet below sea level.
What is A word meaning elevation or height above sea level called?
Altitude.
Do elevation and altitude mean the same thing?
No, elevation is the angle at which you would be elevating something. Altitude is usually a term used when flying planes to describe how high you are in relation to sea level.
Is altitude a noun?
Yes, altitude is a noun, a singular common noun, a word for measurement in height in relation to sea level or the ground; altitude is a thing.
What is the difference between a negative the altitude and a positive altitude?
Altitude describes an object's position relative to sea level. An object in a position higher than sea level would have a positive altitude, sea level would have an altitude of zero, and any object below sea level would have a negative altitude.
Is the temperature for poultry the same at high altitude?
yes the internal temperature for doneness is the same. But the length of time you roast it in the oven will vary from sea level to high altitude.
Is altitude negative or positive?
Yes, that is correct. Altitude above sea level, for example, is negative or positive - if you are below sea level, a negative number will be used.
What is altitude?
== == Science Major: Altitude is height above mean sea level (MSL) or true altitude, which means in reference to what sea level is on the ground, or height above ground level (AGL), which is also called absolute altitude, which means height above the ground with no reference to the ground's height above sea level. In example, if the sea level in a certain place is 100 feet and you are 250 feet above the ground, your altitude above sea level would be 350 feet, and your altitude above ground level would be 250 feet.
Is altitude greater at sea level?
No it is not
Why bagalor is the highest altitude above sea level?
It is not, the highest altitude above Sea Level is achieved by the summit of Mt. Everest.
Is the height of a triangle an altitude?
No, an altitude is a height above sea level.
Contour lines pass through all points that have the same?
Altitude (height above sea level)
Is a level line curved or straight?
A level line is based on altitude. Altitude is the distance from sea level. Sea level is curved to the shape of the earth so a level line must be curved.
What do you call the height above sea level point on the earths surface?
It is called altitude. It is typically expressed as ASL (above mean sea level, or MSL). However, it can also be specified as AGL (Above the local Ground Level).
