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 kind of front occurs when a warm air mass and a cold air mass meet and no movement occurs?
A stationary front
Metamorphism that occurs because of close proximity to a mass of magma is called?
Contact metamorphism is what occurs because of close proximity to a mass of magma.
What happens when a mass for warm air runs into a mass of cooler air?
A tornado occurs
What occurs when a cold air mass displaces a warmer air mass'?
cold front
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 atmospheric layers of the Earth?
The troposphere, where all weather occurs, is the lowest and densest layer in the atmosphereIt is the lowest atmospheric layer. It is also the densest layer, containing 90% of the atmosphere's total mass. Almost all of the earth's carbon dioxide, water vapor.
What is the lowest most dense layer in the atmosphere?
The troposphere, It has the most mass because that is where all the weather occurs.~Amanda~
Which planet has the greatest mass relative to earth?
Jupiter has the greatest mass relative to Earth.
On which planet would mass be greatest?
Your mass is the same regardless of where you are. Your weight would be greatest on Jupiter.
On which planet would your mass be greatest?
Your mass is the same regardless of where you are. Your weight would be greatest on Jupiter.
What planet would your mass be the greatest?
You mass is the same no matter where you are. You weight would be greatest on Jupiter.
How does warm air mass being pushed into a region of cold air affect atmospheric pressure?
It results in a lower atmospheric pressure.
What kind of front occurs when a warm air mass and a cold air mass meet and no movement occurs?
A stationary front
What has the author R A Rasmussen written?
R. A. Rasmussen has written: 'The atmospheric lifetime experiment and the global atmospheric gas experiment (ALE/GAGE)' -- subject(s): Atmospheric chemistry, Atmospheric composition, Mass distribution, Ozonosphere, Chlorofluorocarbons, Ozone depletion
What gases are found in the atmosphere what gases are found in the troposphere?
About 90% of the atmospheric mass is in the troposphere. You can tell because 90% of the pressure increase occurs in the troposphere. Pressure goes from zero in space to 100 mb at the tropopause to 1000 mb at the surface.
What has the greatest force of gravity to the earth at the surface?
The object with the greatest mass.
