What is the surface tempriture of earth?

As you will know, it varies across the planet.The average temperature of Earth's surface has varied between 13.8 and 14.6 degrees Celsius (56.8 and 58.3 degrees Fahrenheit) during the period from 1950 to 1999.In the year 1999, the average global temperature was approximately 14.4 degrees Celsius (57.9 degrees Fahrenheit).The highest recorded has been 56.7oC and lowest -89oC. These temperatures are dry bulb temperatures.By comparison the core of the Earth is estimated to be between 3400oC and 7000oC, hotter than the melting point of steel (around 1500oC) The average temperature is 14° C. That's 287 kelvin, or 57.2° F.As you probably realize, that number is just an average. The Earth's temperature can be much higher or lower than this temperature. In the hottest places of the planet, in the deserts near the equator, the temperature on Earth can get as high as 57.7° C. And then in the coldest place, at the south pole in Antarctica, the temperature can dip down to -89° C.The reason the average temperature on Earth is so high is because of the atmosphere. This acts like a blanket, trapping infrared radiation close to the planet and warming it up. Without the atmosphere, the temperature on Earth would be more like the Moon, which rises to 116° C in the day, and then dips down to -173° C at night.Earth's surface temperature can varies from place to place ofcourse, the current weather also plays a huge role. Then there's the fact of global warming and the sun.All these are usually in constant change but Earth's temperature on average is about 28-34 degrees Celsius.


What is the place where the troposphere stops getting colder?

The tropopause is the boundary in the Earth's atmosphere between the troposphere and the stratosphere, where temperature stops decreasing with altitude and remains constant. This is due to the presence of a stable temperature inversion layer that separates these two atmospheric layers.


How does gravity support life on earth?

Gravity keeps Earth's atmosphere in place, allowing it to trap heat and create a stable temperature range suitable for life. Gravity also helps maintain the planet's water cycle by holding oceans and lakes in place, essential for supporting a diversity of life forms on Earth. Additionally, gravity plays a key role in shaping Earth's geology, which influences the availability of resources critical for life.


After earth which is the planet where man can survive?

Man can survive in any place where the Earth-like conditions of temperature, pressure, atmosphere, and radiation shielding can be simulated. To put it another way, Man can not survive the natural environment in any place where those Earth-like conditions don't exist naturally. We don't know of any place more than a few miles from the surface of the Earth where they do.


How would you describe the atmosphere?

The atmosphere is the layer of gases surrounding Earth that is held in place by gravity. It protects life on Earth by absorbing most of the harmful radiation from the sun and regulating temperature through various processes. It is composed mainly of nitrogen and oxygen, with trace amounts of other gases.

What role does the ocean play in stabilizing earth's weather conditions?

Because it is a very large storage of heat. It acts as a condenser in an electrical circuit. When the temperature swings to the very cold, the water in the oceans release heat, thereby constraining the swing amplitude. The opposite happens when it becomes too hot: the ocean's immense volume of water absorbs part of this heat. This explain why deserts have extreme swings of temperature, going to subfreezing temperatures at night to scalding temperatures during the day. Earth would be an unbearable place without its oceans and life would hardly exist at all (remember Mars).


The basic reason why the temperature of Earth's surface varies from place to place is because insolation heats Earth's surface?

The temperature of Earth's surface varies from place to place due to factors such as latitude, altitude, proximity to bodies of water, and the presence of mountains or forests. These factors influence how much sunlight is absorbed or reflected, affecting the temperature in different regions.
