Where above the earth are most stratus clouds made of water droplets?
There altitude is less than 2000 meters
What are high altitude clouds made of?
water
How does altitude affect clouds?
Altitude affects the composition of clouds because the troposphere is very cold, so the clouds up higher are made of ice crystals. The clouds in the lower sections are made of water droplets or a mixture of water droplets and ice crystals.
Can the sun burn Space Rocks?
by expansion in the summer. rocks could heat to the point of expansion, develop cracks, and fall apart. the process would be hastened by water getting into the cracks, and freezing, in the winter.
How hot is 726 k in degrees F?
Well we know that ºK and ºF are two different scales of temperature, and I know how to convert ºK to ºC and then ºC to ºF. Degrees Kelvin have the same size as Degrees Centigrade ( there are 100ºK and also 100ºC between the freezing point and the boiling point of water) its just that the scale of º Kelvin starts much further down where it is so cold you can't get any colder. In fact there is no such thing as a minus temperature in º Kelvin because 0ºK is the lowest you can go. It is Absolute Zero (Even in the Universe!) It is so cold that on the º Kelvin scale, the freezing point of water is 273.15 ºK, and 20ºC is 293.15ºK and the boiling point of water is 373.15 ºK So to convert º Kelvin to º Centigrade subtract 273.15, easy as that. If we dont need real accuracy we can say 273. We use Absolute Zero scales because that is where all processes of change of state of materials (of Temperature, Volume and Pressure) start from, so it is easier than having to start half way up a scale and then having to compensate for the different starting points all through the solution. It is easier to work out the absolute temperature first, then the problem then the final temperature in ºC or ºF if necessary at the end. The same goes for Absolute Pressure - and pressure changes due to Temperature change or Volume change follow a fairly simple mathematical rule but only according to absolute temperature or absolute pressure. Now we need to convert ºCentigrade to ºFahrenheit. There are 212 degrees of Fahrenheit between the Freezing point of a saturated Brine solution (very salty water) and the boiling point of ordinary water, both at normal atmospheric pressure. (boiling point temperature does go up with an increase in pressure and down with a decrease in atmospheric pressure i.e. down on a mountain or in a plane, the same effect with Centigrade degrees). On the same scale the freezing point of ordinary water is 32º Fahrenheit. So there is 212ºF-32ºF =180ºF between the Freezing point and the Boiling point of ordinary water. Referring back to our Centigrade Scale there is 100ºC between the same points. So the ratio between Fahrenheit and Centigrade degrees is 180/100, or 9/5. Similarly the ratio between Centigrade and Fahrenheit is 100/180, or 5/9. This is the actual ratio between the degrees. However the freezing point of water is 32 º in the Fahrenheit scale - so we have to take account of that in our conversion formula to bring our Fahrenheit scale back to the same starting point of 0º relative to the Centigrade scale, by subtracting 32 from our initial Fahrenheit temperature - or adding 32 to our converted Centigrade temperature to Fahrenheit to compensate for the starting temperature difference of 32 in the Fahrenheit scale. So ºC = 5/9(ºF-32), and the reverse ºF = ºC*9/5+32. These are the conversion formulae. So Answer is 726ºK-273 =453ºC = (9/5*453)+32=847.4ºF
When altitude increases what happens to the freezing point of fresh water?
it rises
How do altitude affect freezing melting and boiling points of water?
The boiling point of water is lower at high altitude; the freezing point is practically not affected.
Can water boil at it's freezing point?
Water can not boil at its freezing point. Water can only boil at its boiling point. These are two contradictory points in temperature that would cancel each other out.
Does freezing temperature change at higher altitudes?
Elevation has minimal affects on the freezing point of water as it doesn't deal with gas molecules as boiling does. Elevation affects the boiling point of water because the air pressure changes with elevation.
What is the freezing point of water at 5000 meters in celcius?
Do you mean 5,000 meters of altitude or 5,000 m depth (pressure?)
What is the boiling point of water at 1500 meters?
At an altitude of 1500 metres, pure water will boil at approx 95 deg C.
What is the boil point of water in celsius at 1000 meters?
At an altitude of 1000 metres, pure water will boil at approx 96.5 deg C
What does salt have to do with the freezing point of water?
Adding salt to water the freezing point decrease.
What is 0 degrees Celsius?
It is the freezing point of water and equivalent to 32 degrees fahrenheit it is freezing! In Fahrenheit, it is 32 degrees. It is also the freezing point of water in Celsius.
What kind of property is melting point and freezing point of water?
The melting point and freezing point of water are physical properties.
Does salt affect the temperature of water -boiling point - freezing point?
i would opt for the Freezing point. salt decreases the freezing point of water. so if water would normally freeze at 0C, saltwater would freeze at -3C.
How does salt affect the melting and freezing point of water?
Salt decreases the freezing point of water and increases the boiling point of water.
