Does the oort cloud have an atmosphere?
No. The oort cloud is not an object, it is a possible region around the sun that holds a large number of icy objects. Most of these objects would be too small to have atmosphere.
This holds a planet's atmosphere close to its surface?
What is Gravity?
What creates the heat while a space shuttle is leaving the atmosphere?
In the exosphere, Friction between the atmosphere and the shuttle creates the heat.
Why does the moon have big temperature changes while earth dose not?
because the Earth has more of an atmosphere, and the Moon does not. the atmoshpere holds in heat and cold, so on the moon there is not anything to keep the temperature stable
What warms the atmosphere?
Mostly the sun. The sun's heat warms the earth. This heat, in the form of infra-red energy rises into the atmosphere where it is trapped by greenhouse gases. This greenhouse effect warms the atmosphere.
What is a natural process that holds heat Earth-atmosphere?
The Greenhouse Effect.
Why does the earth remain warm after sunset?
The surface of the earth holds heat, and the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere hold heat all through the night. If the earth had no atmosphere, then at night all the heat would escape out to space and the earth would be freezing.
Why is the earths atmosphere important?
The atmosphere of the earth holds the air we breath and protects us from the harmful effects of the sun. The atmosphere also holds heat so we don't freeze to death
Which sphere holds the most carbon on earth?
atmosphere
How does the atmosphere on venus act like a greenhouse?
The atmosphere is very thick because of all the Carbon Dioxide. Therefore, it holds in the sun's heat which is not allowed to escape.
How does most heat energy in the atmosphere move?
Convection == == == ==
When the heat that is usually radiated back into the atmosphere as infrared radiation gets trapped and forms a dome that holds heat in this is called the what effect?
green house effect
Which planet is hot because of its thick atmosphere?
Venus is the hottest planet, as it is close to the sun and also has a thick carbon dioxide atmosphere that holds the heat effectively.Venus is extremely hot because its thick atmosphere, rich in carbon dioxide, traps heat energy from the sun.
What holds earth's atmosphere together?
the gravitational force holds its atmosphere together
What traps the most heat in the atmosphere of venus?
Carbon dioxide.
Does soil or water heat hold heat more effectively?
Electricity holds the most heats
What color holds in the most heat during winter time?
blue
