What happens to the air pressure when you move from the troposphere to the stratosphere?
air pressure decreases
What is the lowest most dense layer in the atmosphere?
The troposphere, It has the most mass because that is where all the weather occurs.~Amanda~
Which layer of the atmosphere is thinnest?
the thinnest layer of the atmosphere is the exospere or the ionosphere both and if you have neither of those than ask your teacher or other adult ~ unknown ~
In which layer is the pressuer the highest?
The troposphere is the layer of the earth's atmosphere with the highest air pressure. This is because the troposphere is the layer closest to the Earth's surface. As a result, the air is quite dense in the troposphere. As pressure is directly proportional to density, it means that the atmospheric pressure would be greatest in the troposphere.
What layer is the atmosphere pressure highest?
The troposphere is the layer of the earth's atmosphere with the highest air pressure.
Where is air pressure greater in the exosphere or in trposphere?
Troposphere.
Where is air greater in the exosphere or in the troposphere?
troposphere
Why does the temperature decrease with heights in the troposphere?
Because Of Air Pressure.
Which layer in the atmosphere has the most air pressure?
The troposphere. The lower you go, the higher the air pressure. The average air pressure at sea level is 1013 mbar, or 101.3 kPa.
What are the two characteristics of the thermosphere?
northern lights here between exosphere and mesosphere gravity and air pressure decrease
In the troposphere does the temperature increase or decrease with altitude?
In the troposphere, temperatures decrease with altitude (air pressure), in the effect known as the adiabatic lapse rate (9.8 °C per thousand feet).
Which layer of the atmosphere has the lowest air pressure?
http://www.windows.ucar.edu/tour/link=/earth/Atmosphere/layers.html Exosphere That's the outer most layer in the atmosphere. It experiences very low pressures due to the weak gravity at such astronomically high altitudes, and thus the more massive and heavy gases are in levels of the atmosphere, such as the Troposphere.
Where is air pressure the least?
exosphere.
Where is air pressure the greatest in the atmosphere?
Air pressure is the amount of force exerted on an object by the atmosphere. It is greatest at sea level.It is greatest in the exosphere, due to the fact that air pressure is greater as the altitude rises; the exosphere is the highest level within the atmosphere.Air pressure is greatest in the areas that are small and enclosed. This is because there is no way to escape.
Troposphere increase or decrease in air temp?
The temperature of the Troposphere generally decreases as altitude increases.
What happens to the air pressure when you move from the troposphere to the stratosphere?
air pressure decreases
What happens to air pressure when you move from the troposphere to the stratosphere?
air pressure decreases
