what puffy clouds that can be found at middle altitudes
What else can I help you with?
What cloud is layered but puffy clouds that occur at middle and lower elevations?
Cumulus clouds are layered but puffy clouds that occur at middle and lower elevations. They are typically associated with fair weather, but can develop into larger storm clouds if conditions become more unstable.
Why are higher elevations colder than lower elevations?
Higher elevations are colder than lower elevations because the air pressure decreases with altitude, causing the air to expand and cool. This results in lower temperatures at higher elevations.
Is air pressure greater at the top of a mountain than at lower elevations?
No, it is greater at the lower elevations.
A cloud that is somewhat flat and layered is called?
Stratus
Why is it colder in the mountains than in lower elevations?
Mountains are colder than lower elevations because as altitude increases, the air pressure decreases, causing the air to expand and cool. This results in lower temperatures in mountainous regions compared to lower elevations.
What causes lower elevations to have denser air than high elevations?
Lower elevations have denser air than higher elevations because air molecules are squeezed closer together by the weight of the air above, creating higher air pressure. This higher pressure at lower elevations results in denser air that contains more molecules per unit volume compared to the lower pressure and thinner air found at higher elevations.
What are lower elevations?
a lower 'height' than whatever its referring to.
What is the atmosphere like in higher elevations?
The air is thinner than air in lower elevations.
Why does it take food longer to cook at higher elevations?
At higher elevations the boiling point is lower.
If you saw thin wispy clouds followed by lower layered cloud what type of weather might you expect in the near future?
The thin, wispy clouds you saw are Cirrus clouds and they are very high in the atmosphere and made of ice crystals. They normally indicate a change in the weather, and it is usually bad weather. This means that the low layered cloud you saw was either a stratus or cumulonimbus cloud which are both storm clouds. Cirrus clouds don't always predict storms, but that was probably what was happening.
Do things weigh more at lower elevations?
No
What type of cloud is flat and layered forming a blanket like cover over the sky?
Stratus Clouds form a layer or 'sheet' across the sky and tend to be much lower in the atmosphere
