What causes reduced visibility in the mountains?
Most mountains are very close to or are touching clouds, which causes a fog and reduced visibility.
What kind of atmosphere does the moon have?
The only known moon to have a dense atmosphere is Titan, the largest moon of Saturn and 2nd largest moon in the solar system. At the surface the atmospheric pressure is 2 to 4 times the surface pressure on Earth. The atmosphere is between 500 and 1000 km thick. It consists of 98.4 % nitrogen, and 1.6% hydrocarbons such as ethane, methane and many others.
Why is there more air pressure in the first layer of atmosphere?
The atmosphere consists of 5 layers: the troposphere, which we live in; followed by stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere and exosphere. Air pressure at any of these layers is typically caused by hydrostatic pressure, defined as P = hpg, where P is the pressure, h is the height or depth of fluid, and g is the gravitational acceleration. In simple context, my physics lecturer once explained to me: the reason why we live under an atmospheric pressure of 1 bar is simply because there is a column of air above us. As we move upwards (e.g. in an airplane or on top of a mountain), the height of this column is reduced, thus the atmospheric pressure is less. Therefore, the first layer of atmosphere (or the lowest layer) will experience the highest air pressure.
Reduce this by taking shorter showers?
Water consumption will be reduced
What happens to the orbit of earth when the mass of the sun is reduced to 75000?
The orbit gets larger
How the effects of nuclear charge and the increasing number of core electrons in an atom oppose each other?
The increasing number of core electrons serve to "shield" the outer electrons from the positive charges in the nucleus. Thus, the effective nuclear charge (Zeff) is reduced.
What can soil erosion and loss be reduced by?
planting more trees and by planting them in rows
How can erosion be reduced on steep slopes?
by planting vegetation
How could the impacts of deforestation on atmospheric carbon dioxide be reduced?
By reforestation, planting all the forests again. By afforestation, planting forests where there were none before.
What has reduced the amount of ozone in the atmosphere?
The amount of ozone has reduced. It is due to CFC.
How can erosion be reduced?
Erosion can be reduced by planting plants that have roots. This helps because the roots in the plants hold the ground in place.
What is increasing input with reduced output?
Diminishing returns.
How could the use of nuclear energy source be reduced?
By relying more extensively on fossil fuels. The hell with global warming!Seriously, the use of nuclear energy needs to be expanded, not reduced.
What event has reduced the threat of the nuclear war?
end of the cold war
How can smog be reduced?
Smog can be reduced by laws that restrict chemical factories from what can be released into the atmosphere. Additionally, smog can be reduced by properly maintaining vehicles and the creation of stricter emissions standards.
Can mud flows and lahars be prevented?
Mudflows and lahars can be prevented or greatly reduced by planting deep rooted vegetation in places they might occur.
What effect will reducing your carbon footprint have?
The effects are a reduced greenhouse phenomenon and a cleaner atmosphere.
