What else can I help you with?
This planet is characterized by a smooth unmarked surface caused by a thick protective atmosphere?
The planet you are describing appears to be Venus. Its thick atmosphere consists mainly of carbon dioxide with clouds that cause a greenhouse effect, trapping heat and maintaining high surface temperatures. This results in a smooth surface due to intense volcanic activity and atmospheric pressure that erases impact craters.
What caused mercury's surface to look like it does?
Because mercury has no atmosphere
What causes the pressure of the atmosphere?
Atmospheric pressure is caused by the force of the air above the earths surface. It is measured by the point in which the air meets the atmosphere.
What caused the water to evaporate in this model?
When water molecules at the surface gain sufficient energy they can escape in the atmosphere.
Dose air in the atmosphere exert pressure on earths surface?
Yes. Atmospheric pressure is the pressure caused by air when it exerts pressure on the surface of earth.
What caused the surface of the moon to look the way it does?
The surface of the moon looks the way it does because of impacts from asteroids and comets, volcanic activity, and the lack of atmosphere to weather or erode the surface.
What the atmosphere exert pressure on?
The atmosphere exerts pressure on various objects on the earth's surface. Air pressure is generally caused by the collision of the gas molecules with one another.
What caused te Earth's atmosphere to exist?
What caused the Earth's atmosphere to exist?
Does a planet need atmosphere to have a Greenhouse Effect?
Yes. The greenhouse effect is caused by gasses that block thermal radiation from a planet's surface.
Which layer of the atmosphere protects earth surface from being hit by most meteorids?
The mesosphere is the layer of the atmosphere that protects the Earth's surface from most meteoroids. Meteoroids burn up in this layer due to the high temperature caused by the friction with the air molecules.
What is called an unnatural warming of the atmosphere near earths surface?
An unnatural warming of the atmosphere near Earth's surface is called global warming or anthropogenic climate change. This phenomenon is primarily caused by human activities that release greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, trapping heat and leading to a rise in global temperatures.
How is air pressure effected by altitude?
With a higher altitude, there is a lower air pressure. This is caused by gravity pulling the gas molecules of our atmosphere closer to its surface. when the molecules are farther away from the Earth's surface the gravitational pull is weaker thus making the atmosphere thinner higher up and thicker closer to the surface.
