Why does air cool when it rises though the atmosphere?
As air rises it decompresses, as pressure decreases with increasing altitude. All gasses cool when decompressed. This process is called adiabatic cooling.
How would a meteor experience an adiabatic compression?
As the meteor enters the atmosphere it is assaulted with atmospheric ram pressure. Ram pressure is the pressure exerted on the object and causes a drag force. A meteor produces a shock wave generated by the rapid compression of air in front of the meteor.
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 give off oxygen to the atmosphere?
the process of photosynthesis
What would happen if the rate at which materials naturally move in or out of the atmosphere changed?
Either more or less materials would be in the atmosphere.
Is melting process is adiabatic process?
An adiabatic process in the opposite of a diabatic process. The adiabatic process occurs without the exchange of heat with its environment. A diabatic process exchanges heat with the environment.
What is an adiabatic process?
An adiabatic process is a thermodynamic process, there is no gain or loss of heat.
What is adiabatic proccess?
An adiabatic process is a process that takes place without any loss or gain of heat.
What happen when the inflated tire burst the air escapes out?
due to adiabatic process no exchange of heat with surroundings instantly.
Do adiabatic parcels occur in the atmosphere in the ocean or in both?
in both.
When is cryogenic process considered adiabatic?
A process can be considered to be adiabatic if heat loss/transfer is zero, or negligible compared to the system. If the system contains for example, 1 x 10^6 J of heat energy and 3J are lost in a process, the process can be considered adiabatic.
Why is saturated adiabatic lapse rate a lesser than dry adiabatic lapse rate?
When environmental lapse rate is more than dry adiabatic lapse rate, the atmosphere is said to be in
What is another name for riversible adiabatic process?
Isentropic process
Why carnot cycle is called a two adiabatic and two isothermal process?
Adiabatic means there's no heat transference during the process; Isothermal means the process occurs at constant temperature. The compression and expansion processes are adiabatic, whereas the heat transfer from the hot reservoir and to the cold reservoir are isothermal. Those are the two adiabatic and isothermal processes.
A change in temperature without an accompanying change in the amount of heat present is called what?
It is called adiabatic or an adiabatic process.
What is ratio of reversible adiabatic process?
