In the winter, our part of the Earth tilts away from the sun, and another tilts towards it, that is why we have winter when, say, Australia has summer.

As the Earth moves around the sun, its tilt is adjusted to the sun depending on where we are. (The distance of the Earth to the sun is also a factor.

Why does the temperature of the zone of surface water decrease only slightly as depth increases?

The temperature of surface water is influenced by factors like sunlight, wind, and air temperature, which can cause variations. Where these factors are the primary source of heat, the temperature gradient in surface water may decrease only slightly with depth. Deeper water is insulated from these immediate changes, allowing it to maintain a more consistent temperature.

What will cause a decrease in gas pressure in a closed containe?

A decrease in temperature or a decrease in the number of gas particles in the container will cause a decrease in gas pressure. Additionally, if some of the gas particles escape from the container, it will also lead to a decrease in pressure.


Which change would cause a decrease in the amount of insolation absorbed at Earths surface?

An increase in cloud cover or an increase in atmospheric particulates like aerosols would lead to a decrease in the amount of insolation absorbed at Earth's surface by reflecting more sunlight back to space before it can reach the surface.


What will cause a decrease in a gas pressure in closed container?

Lowering the temperature will cause a decrease in gas pressure in a closed container.


What will cause a decrease in a gas pressure in a closed container?

A decrease in temperature or a decrease in the number of gas molecules in the container will cause a decrease in gas pressure. Alternatively, if some of the gas molecules escape from the container, the pressure will also decrease.
