How is heat in the atmosphere distributed in vertical mixing process?
Heat in the atmosphere is distributed in vertical mixing process by means of convection. It is also known as the process of vertical distribution.
The combustion reactions that occur in the engines of a rocket lead to pressure gradients that cause the gaseous products to rush out of the rocket into the atmosphere. What is created by this process?
Thrust
Does the temperature in the layers of the sun's atmosphere evenly distributed?
The sun does not have an atmosphere. In the earth, the temperature in the different layers is not evenly distributed.
What priperty is used to distinguish the layers of the atmosphere?
Temperature is the property used to distinguish the layers of the atmosphere
Which layer of the atmosphere has the coldest temperature after the troposphere?
thermosphere
What is Stable air?
Air in which static instability exists. This condition is determined by the vertical gradients of air temperature and humidity.
Is the vertical temperature profile of the atmosphere the same at all time?
No, the vertical temperature profile may vary at different times.
Why doesnt air temperature change uniformly with altitude?
Altitude doesn't change uniformly because the four main layers of the atmosphere have different temperature gradients, creating the thermal structure of the atmosphere.
What has the author Harry Crawford Frankenfield written?
Harry Crawford Frankenfield has written: 'The spring floods of 1922' -- subject(s): Floods 'The floods of 1927 in the Mississippi basin' -- subject(s): Floods 'Vertical gradients of temperature, humidity, and wind direction' -- subject(s): Atmosphere, Upper, Atmospheric temperature, Humidity, Kites (Meteorology), Upper Atmosphere, Winds
What initiates air flow?
Temperature gradients
The atmosphere is a relatively thin layer of gas that scientists divide into four sections based only on chemical composition. true or false.?
False. I believe the layers are assigned by temperature gradients.
How is heat in the atmosphere distributed in vertical mixing process?
Heat in the atmosphere is distributed in vertical mixing process by means of convection. It is also known as the process of vertical distribution.
What is the vertical dimensions of the atmosphere?
50 miles
The earth's atmosphere is divided into layers based on changes in the vertical profile of?
The layers are defined primarily by the "lapse rate", or change in temperature with increasing altitude. The lapse rate is negative (temperature falls) in the troposphere, but positive (temperature rises) in the stratosphere. Temperatures decrease again when ascending into the Mesosphere.
Is the vertical movement of air currents due to temperature variations?
What is the vertical movenment to air currents due to temperature variations?
Which deflects winds to the west to east?
Coriolis effect
What is the temperature of the moon's atmosphere?
The Moon has no atmosphere.
