What layer of the atmosphere is the layer where weather happens?

Shear strength value of soft soils?
half of commpresive strength
What is the thinnest layer of earths atmosphere?
The atmosphere layer that is thinnest in size is the upper layer, the exosphere. 1. The troposphere is the first layer above the surface and contains half of the Earth's atmosphere. Weather occurs in this layer. 2. Many jet aircrafts fly in the stratosphere because it is very stable. Also, the ozone layer absorbs harmful rays from the Sun. 3. Meteors or rock fragments burn up in the mesosphere. 4. The thermosphere is a layer with auroras. It is also where the space shuttle orbits. 5. The atmosphere merges into space in the extremely thin exosphere. This is the upper limit of our atmosphere.
What is the layer of soil?
The top layer is litter, the second layer is topsoil, the third layer is subsoil, and the last layer is bedrock.
How many layers does earth's atmosphere have?
I think there are 5 layers in our atmosphere; It is thickest near the surface and thins out with height until it eventually merges with space.The troposphere is the first layer above the surface and contains half of the Earth's atmosphere. Weather occurs in this layer.Many jet air crafts fly in the stratosphere because it is very stable.

What is a half-value layer?
Some previously called a half-value thickness or half-value layer a half-thickness. Whatever an investigator calls it, the half-value layer is the thickness a layer of a given material would have to be to reduce the intensity of radiation striking its surface by half (50%).
What is the Half value layer relationship to kvp?
kVp is the penetrating ability of an x-ray and half value layer is the amount of filtration or thickness of an object needed to reduce the intensity of the x-ray by half. So if you decreased kVp, then the half value layer would decrease.
What is meant by the half value layer of a heterogenous beam?
The half value layer of a heterogenous beam is the thickness of the absorber that reduces the exposure rate to half the initial (starting) exposure.
What is meant by the half value layer of a homogenous beam?
The half value layer of a homogenous beam is the thickness of the absorber that reduces the intensity of the beam to half the initial (starting) intensity.
What is the half value layer for iridium?
3 mm
Why is the half dime called a half dime?
Because the value of it is worth half the value of a dime.
What is the value of the ozone layer to the human?
The ozone layer is of value to human as it guards mankind against exposure to the harmful ultraviolet radiation coming from sun.

half of earths layer
How much is a 1972 Eisenhower silver dollar missing clad worth?
If it is in uncirculated condition and is missing all of the clad layer it could have a value of about $600. In uncirculated condition and is missing part of the clad layer it could have a value of about $300. In circulated condition and is missing all of the clad layer it could have a value of about $60. In circulated condition and missing part of the clad layer it could have a value of about $30.
