When you move upward through the atmosphere what does the temperature do?
The temperture drops.
Why is Earth's atmosphere mainly heated from the ground up?
Solar radiation mostly passes through the atmosphere without heating it, due to its wavelength. It does not pass through the ground, however, and it heats the ground. The ground emits radiation at a wavelength dependent on its temperature. This radiation happens to be in the thermal infrared part of the spectrum, or in other words, sensible heat. Therefore, the atmosphere is heated by the surface, whereupon the heat tends to rise and heat the lower atmosphere.
What happens to a substance's temperature as it god through the change of state?
Its temperature remains constant.
What happens to warm air as it moves through the atmosphere?
the warm air raises
What happens when you descend through the water columns?
temperature decreases
When you move upward through the atmosphere what does the temperature do?
The temperture drops.
Why rockets can resist extreme high temperature?
with strong outer shells,rockets can resist the atmosphere's extremely high temperature created by their rapid movement through the atmosphere
What happens in the trmperature in the atmosphere as you go up through the troposphere?
Dcreases

How does the temperature changes as you travel through earths atmosphere?
It changes to a next temperture
How do oceans and the atmosphere interact?
Through temperature transfer, wind, exchange of gasses.
What happens to temperature as you move up through out the atmosphere?
Generally speaking, temperature decreases with altitude up to about 10km, then gradually incrases again peaking at around 50km, then falls off again until about 90km, then starts increasing again.
How does temperature change as you go through the atmosphere?
There are four layers of the atmosphere. At the ground is the troposphere, followed by the stratosphere, mesosphere and thermosphere. Temperature decreases with height through the troposphere, increases in the stratosphere, decreases in the mesosphere, then increases again in the thermosphere.

Its temperature remains constant.
What happens to warm air as it moves through the atmosphere?
the warm air raises
Why does air cool when it rises through the atmosphere what is this type of cooling known as?
Air cools becuase when its rising through the atmosphere altitude decreases temperature, and when air rises its temperature drops at the dry abiatic rate. This type of cooling is known as adiabatic.
What happens when you descend through the water columns?
temperature decreases
