What is the difference between troposphere and exosphere?
Atmosphere is composed of several layers.First layer close to eath is troposphere and the last layer at a height of about 13.5 km is exosphere.
What layer of the atmosphere has the coldest temperature -100?
From Wikipedia:Temperature decreases with height in the mesosphere. The mesopause, the temperature minimum that marks the top of the mesosphere, is the coldest place on Earth and has an average temperature around −100 °C (−148.0 °F; 173.1 K)the mesosphere is the coldest layer in the atmosphere. It contains the ozone.OK!! the answer above is incorrect the coldest layer in the atmosphere is the Mesopause its the thin layer between the Mesosphere and Thermosphere. Also the Ozone is in the Stratosphere.Actually its correct because the mesopause is a part of the mesosphere....ok the 1st and 3rd answers are wrong! i should know im learning this in my 7TH GRADE SCIENCE CLASS! the ozone is in the stratosphere, the second closest layer to the earth. STUPIDS!
What are to ways in which clouds are classified?
Clouds are classified by the height of which they are at, in the Earths atmosphere.
Name the five layers of earth's atmosphere and conditions?
Earth's atmosphere can be divided into five main layers. These layers are mainly determined by whether temperature increases or decreases with altitude. From highest to lowest, these layers are:ExosphereThe outermost layer of Earth's atmosphere extends from the exobase upward. Here the particles are so far apart that they can travel hundreds of km without colliding with one another. Since the particles rarely collide, the atmosphere no longer behaves like a fluid. These free-moving particles follow ballistic trajectories and may migrate into and out of the magnetosphere or the solar wind. The exosphere is mainly composed of hydrogen and helium.ThermosphereTemperature increases with height in the thermosphere from the mesopause up to the Thermopause then is constant with height. The temperature of this layer can rise to 1,500 °C (2,730 °F), though the gas molecules are so far apart that temperature in the usual sense is not well defined. The ISS orbits in this layer, between 320 and 380 km (200 and 240 mi). The top of the thermosphere is the bottom of the exosphere, called the exobase. Its height varies with solar activity and ranges from about 350-800 km (220-500 mi; 1,100,000-2,600,000 ft).MesophereThe mesosphere extends from the stratopause to 80-85 km (50-53 mi; 260,000-280,000 ft). It is the layer where most meteors burn up upon entering the atmosphere. Temperature decreases with height in the mesosphere. The mesopause, the temperature minimum that marks the top of the mesosphere, is the coldest place on Earth and has an average temperature around −100 C(−148.0 F; 173.1 K).StratrosphereThe stratosphere extends from the tropopause to about 51 km (32 mi; 170,000 ft). Temperature increases with height, which restricts turbulence and mixing. The statrosphere, which is the boundary between the stratosphere and mesosphere, typically is at 50 to 55 km (31 to 34 mi; 160,000 to 180,000 ft). The pressure here is 1/1000th sea levelTroposphereThe troposphere begins at the surface and extends to between 7 km (23,000 ft) at the poles and 17 km (56,000 ft) at the equator, with some variation due to weather. The troposphere is mostly heated by transfer of energy from the surface, so on average the lowest part of the troposphere is warmest and temperature decreases with altitude. This promotes vertical mixing (hence the origin of its name in the Greek word trope, meaning turn or overturn). The troposphere contains roughly 80%of the mass of the atmosphere. The tropopause is the boundary between the troposphere and stratosphere.
Where is the Tropopause located of earth's atmosphere?
The height of the Tropopause depends mainly on the Latitude. At the Poles, it is about 30,000' and at the equator it is about 60,000. This number varies with a change in temperature/season. It is higher at the equator due to a naturally higher temperature at sea level, this means the parcel of air has a lower density. Because of the lower density the parcel of air will be more 'stretched out' than the air at the poles (the colder parcel of air with a higher density).
What happens to the temperature as the height of the atmosphere increase?
It become colder
What relation between pressure and height?
Pressure decreases as height increases and vice-versa.
What is the relation between the volume and height of two similar cones?
The volume is proportional to the cube of the height.
Why is it cooler on the mountain?
The temperature of the atmosphere reduces with height. Mountains are high, thus cooler.
In which layers of the atmosphere does the temperature increase with increasing height?
The stratosphere is where the temperature increases with height. This is due to absorption of UV radiation by atmospheric ozone.
Relation between the height and time in UV range?
Please clarify question.
When was Same Height Relation created?
Same Height Relation was created in 2005.
What is actual relation between force and height?
That depends on the situation. In many cases, there is no relationship whatsoever between the two.
What is the altitude when the temperature approaches -90C?
Around 80 km in height in the mesosphere is the third layer of the atmosphere of Earth. The temperature decreases as you go up, as in the troposphere. It can be up to -90 ° C. It is the coldest part of the atmosphere.
How can you find the height of a triangle if you have base and area?
The relation between the height of a triangle, its base and its area is given by: Area = 0.5 * Base * Height Therefore, we have: Height = (2 * Area)/ Base.
What is a similarity between heat and temperature?
Potential energy and height: Energy=weight x height. Heat energy=thermal capacity x temperature.
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.
