Is it better to build a house in a higher or lowest elevation?
It always depends. But if a family member has breathing problems, it is best to move to a lower elevation rather than higher because the higher the altitude, the less the air
Is the Charles Mound actually a mountain?
That's a good question...some specific names escape me now, but there are "mountains" elsewhere in the U.S...once agian, I forget the names, but the highest eleveations in missisippi for example are often detailed as a small mountain range and part of Appalccia, however only reaching no higher than a bit under 900 ft., classified as such that are significantly lower than Charles Mounds height of 1,235 ft. above sea leve. I do wonder if there are finer points to consider, but then again, there is no single uniform definition of mountain. I've heard some figuires of 1,000 ft, some at 2,000, for being the minimum.
How do you find the midpoint on a number line?
No number lines are infinite in length. If you have a section of the line, a segment, then the midpoint is the average of the lower and the higher value: (L> + H) / 2 (Lower value plus higher value divided by two) Note that if either of the values is less than zero you will have to think a little harder to get the absolute distance between them!
How does the angle of launch affect the range and trajectory of the projectile?
Easy . Think of it like this. The higher you angle your catapult (or whatever your using.) The higher it will travel but it will have less power. If you have a lower angle you will have more power but it your projectile will hit the ground first. If you don't understand just play around with a slingshot and an empty can of soda. Or you could test it out this theory by playing around with angry birds ;)
What do you call 45 degree angle?
First of all, the 90 degree angle is called a right angle.Now, the angles with lower than 90 degrees is called an acute angle.Last, the angles with higher than 90 degrees is called an obtuse angle.
Will temperature be higher or lower in a mountain?
it is lower temperature when you to mountain,because its cold there
What do the numbers mean on the back of glass paper?
it means the lower the number the ruffer it is but the higher the number the smoother it is!x
If you are on top of a mountain is the air pressure higher because of the cold temperature or lower because you are higher up?
lower because you are higher up
Why does it get colder the higher you go to the mountain?
It gets colder the higher you climb a mountain because of the lower air pressure.
Why is it that when you go up a mountain you get colder because your near to the sun?
because air pressure decreases as altitude increases. As air rises, the pressure decreases. It is the lower pressure at higher altitude that causes temperature to be colder on the top of a mountain compared to sea level.
What do you call the lower slopes of a mountain?
The lower slopes of a mountain are typically referred to as the foothills. These are the more gradual, less steep areas at the base of the mountain before reaching the steeper and more rugged terrain higher up.
When you are on top of a mountain is the air pressure higher dou to the cold temperature of lower due to the high altitude?
Higher than what? As you go up a mountain the air pressure gets lower simply because there is less air above you weighing down on you.
How does a mountain bike differ from a street bike?
A mountain bike is made to be ridden on rough terrain so it has tough, knobby tires; a heavy, strong frame; and shock absorbing features. A street bike is designed to be ridden or smoother surfaces, therefore it has smoother tires, a lighter frame and lower handle bars so you can see hazards more easily.
Why does the top part of the mountain still has snow on it but lower parts don't?
the higher you get the colder it gets
What happens to the temperature of air as it rises toward the top of a mountain?
the temperature gets lower as you get higher. That'swhy there is ice caps on top of the mountain.

Why was the Appalachian mountain was once higher than the rocky mountains?
It is because of the altitude. The Appalachian Mountains are shorter than the Rocky Mountains. The lower the moutain the warmer the mountain. The higher the mountain the colder the mountain. By J.O.B
