Collect the Differences between a barometer and manometer?
barometer is used to measuring atmospheric pressure. manometer is used to measuring the pressure of gases.
What does the term greenhouse effect mean?
Green house effect is a process in atmospheric physics that traps heat in the Earth's atmosphere. It is the result of physical interaction between components of the atmosphere (greenhouse gases) and incoming sunlight. It is not a layer of carbon dioxide in the sky that reflects heat back down as it radiates from the Earth's surface. Heat is absorbed by the carbon dioxide all through the atmosphere and the warmer gas "shares" its heat with all the atmospheric gases increasing the average atmospheric temperature.
What does atmospheric pressure measure?
The force of colliding particles
The atmospheric gas that forms a mild acid when dissolved in water is?
This would be carbon dioxide. When carbon dioxide dissolves in water (as all gases do to some extent) it forms carbonic acid, because the chemical formula would be in perfect balance. Carbonic acid has the chemical formula H2CO3. Also carbon dioxide dissolves into water more readily than many other atmospheric gases. CO2 + H2O <--> H2CO3
What factors affect gas exchange in humans?
The factors that affect gas exchange in humans include the amount of gases in the atmosphere. It also includes temperature, atmospheric pressure and ion concentrations.
Earth's early atmosphere was formed by gases released by oceans plants cornet impacts or volcanic eruptions?
Volcanic eruptions, they produced a lot of carbon dioxide which made up the early atmosphere.
What is a principal cause of acid rain?
Acid rain is caused by emissions of sulphur dioxide and nitrogen oxides which react with the water molecules in the atmosphere to produce acids.Nitrogen oxides can be produced naturally by lightning strikes and sulphur dioxide is produced by volcanic eruptions and industrial emissions. It also can be from gases from burning coal and oil released into the air.
What are the two main gases produced by the industrial gases industry?
The industrial gas industry differs from many other types of manufacturing because its raw materials are primarily extracted from the atmosphere. The two principal gases produced by the industry are nitrogen and oxygen.
The earth's atmosphere probably developed from gases escaping from the interior of the earth during volcanic eruptions this out gassing also produced the earth's?
Oceans.
Variation of pressure in liquids and gases in everyday phenomena-?
The variation of pressure in liquids and gases in everyday phenomena is referred to in Pascal's Principal and produced by gravity and the Earth's rotation.
What atmospheric gases help to heat the earth?
The atmospheric gases carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide are all greenhouse gases that help to heat the Earth.
What is Neptune's atmospheric gases?
it is hydrogen
How are atmospheric gases like the gases in a greenhouse?
The glass on the greenhouse stops temperature from leaving or entering like the gases do to the earth.The atmospheric gases are called 'greenhouse gases' based on the idea that the gases 'trap' heat like the walls of a greenhouse do
What are the principal gases in the tertiary period?
The same gases as today.
What are mercury's atmospheric gases?
Hydrogen, Helium
The gases in Earth's early atmosphere came from what?
Volcanic eruptions
How does the volcano affect the ozone layer?
Volcanic eruptions release harmful gases. These gases deplete the ozone.
