What else can I help you with?
Why is the air pressure higher when you get closer to the ground?
Air pressure increases with decreasing altitude because the weight of the air above pushes down on the air below, compressing it. This compression causes the air molecules to be closer together, increasing the pressure.
Which force squeezes Earth's crust to make the crust shorter and thicker?
Compression forces from tectonic plate movements and collisions cause Earth's crust to be squeezed, making it shorter and thicker. This compression leads to the formation of mountain ranges and other geological features as the crust is pushed together.
Does earthquakes only occur when land meets water?
no. it is when the ground has a crack in it and they rub together witch causes the ground to vibrate. the crack is called a techtonic plate.
What type of force are you exerting when your stomp your foot on the ground?
Compression.
How was Nevis formed?
it was formed by two tectonic plates colliding together and pushing up the ground just like any other mountain
What caused a mountains?
Mountains are typically formed by the movement of tectonic plates, which can collide, separate, or slide past each other, resulting in the uplift of the Earth's crust. This process leads to the deformation and buckling of the Earth's surface, creating the towering landforms we know as mountains.
What causes the production of ozone at ground level?
Lightening causes it. It is a pollutant at ground level.
Are you heavier on a mountain or on the ground?
you are heavier on the mountain. why? because you are exposed to more mass.
Do mountain lion tracks show claws when they are imprinted on the ground?
Yes, mountain lion tracks typically do not show claws when imprinted on the ground.
What mountain is the hugest?
Mt. Everest is the tallest mountain above ground. Mauna Kea is the tallest mountain underwater.
Where is faster to boil on top of the mountain or on the ground of a mountain?
on the top of the mountain as pressure is greater so water will boil quicker
What does plate tectonics have to do with volcanoes and earthquakes?
volcanoes: make the ground crumble and break and cause plates to move and smash earthquakes: makes the ground break and smash together and causes plates because they break when they hit each other.
