what is the approximate height and temperature of the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, and thermosphere?
What else can I help you with?
What is constant in the tropopause?
The temperature is relatively constant in the tropopause, remaining around -60°C to -80°C throughout its height. This stable temperature profile forms a boundary separating the troposphere below from the stratosphere above.
What is the approximate height and tempertaure of the tropause?
The height of the tropopause typically ranges from 8 to 18 kilometers above the Earth's surface. The temperature at the tropopause is around -60 degrees Celsius on average, but this can vary depending on the location and season.
Can anyone give me the real answer for the approximate height and temperature of the tropopause?
u can reach the maximum height of ur body by exercising ur body with pull-ups everyday........,if u havent even taken 3 cm during 3 months u wont go longer..,u have already reached the maximum height
Is the temperature near the tropopause warmer than the temperature near the earth's surface?
No, the temperature near the tropopause is typically colder than the temperature near the Earth's surface. This is because the tropopause marks the boundary between the troposphere and the stratosphere, where temperature generally decreases with altitude due to the way gases in the atmosphere absorb and emit radiation.
What is the standard temperature lapse rate in the troposphere?
The standard temperature lapse rate or environmental lapse rate as it is more commonly known is basically the temperature difference between the tropopause surface divided by height. This uses the formula -dT/dz and essentially shows the temperature decreasing as the height above the tropopause increases.
What is the ISA tropopause temperature?
it ranges from °c +15.0 −56.5
What is jets streams?
Jet streams are fast flowing, narrow air currents found at the tropopause, the transition between the troposphere (where temperature decreases with height) and the stratosphere (where temperature increases with height) and are located at 10-15 kilometers above the surface of the Earth. They form near boundaries of adjacent air masses with significant differences in temperature
The tropopause is the boundary between?
The tropopause is the boundary between the troposphere (the lowest layer of Earth's atmosphere where most weather occurs) and the stratosphere (the layer above the troposphere where the ozone layer is located). This boundary is characterized by a change in temperature and is found at an average height of about 8-15 kilometers above the Earth's surface.
Does the temperature stop decreasing at the top of the troposphere?
Yes, the temperature stops decreasing at the top of the troposphere, known as the tropopause. The tropopause marks the boundary between the troposphere and the stratosphere, and beyond this point, temperature remains relatively constant or may even increase with altitude.
What layer is immediatley above the tropopause?
The layer immediately above the tropopause is the stratosphere. The stratosphere is characterized by its stable temperature and the presence of the ozone layer, which absorbs and scatters ultraviolet radiation from the sun.
Passenger airplanes cruise at an altitude of 11 000m on long flights. In which layer of the atmosphere do these airplanes cruise?
It really depends at what latitude the flight is operating. The lowest layer of the atmosphere, the troposphere, extends up to an altitude of about 23,000 feet (7km) at the poles, and an altitude of about 60,000 feet (17km) at the equator. Therefore, at the poles the aircraft would be flying above the troposhere, in the stratosphere. At the equator, though, the airplane would still be in the troposphere. As you go north or south from the equator, the maximum height of the troposhere (known as the tropopause) generally decreases from 17km to 7km. However, there are notable 'step' changes in the height of the tropopause, where there is a large change in temperature. This causes the high speed winds known as jetstreams, which aeroplanes use to improve journey times. At any location, the height of the tropopause (i.e. depth of the troposphere) is a function of temperature and air pressure/density. As it is warmer and pressure is lower at the equator, the tropopause is higher here than at the poles.
Why is the height of the tropopause a factor in how tall a cumulonimbus cloud can grow?
The height of the tropopause is a crucial factor in determining the maximum altitude of a cumulonimbus cloud because it acts as a stable boundary between the troposphere and the stratosphere. Cumulonimbus clouds develop through strong updrafts that can push moisture and air to great heights, but once they reach the tropopause, these updrafts encounter a layer of warmer, more stable air that inhibits further vertical growth. If the tropopause is higher, it allows cumulonimbus clouds to grow taller, potentially leading to severe weather phenomena like thunderstorms and tornadoes. Conversely, a lower tropopause limits the vertical development of the cloud.
