What is the size of the Thermosphere?
The size of thermosphere extends from about 120 km - 600 km above the earth's surface.
What is the depth of the thermosphere?
Hi there! Here's the answer, darling: The depth is about 80-90 km. above the sea's level.
What is the hottest layer of the Earth's atmosphere?
The thermosphere is the hottest layer of Earth's atmosphere. The molecules there are directly exposed to solar radiation and high-energy cosmic rays. However, there are so few molecules by volume that the specific heat is virtually zero. The thermosphere is generally located 85 to 500 km above the Earth, and the International Space Station orbits in the outer thermosphere (330 to 450 km altitude).
What are the four main layers of the atmosphere in order from earth's surface to space?
TroposphereStratosphereMesosphereThermosphere*Ionosphere (usually included in the thermosphere)*Exosphere (may be included as a fifth layer beyond the basic four)
Which atmospheric level is farthest from the lithosphere?
The thermosphere is.
What is What are facts about the thermosphere?
the thermosphere is 520 km. thick
What is the size of the Thermosphere?
The size of thermosphere extends from about 120 km - 600 km above the earth's surface.
What is the tickness of the thermosphere?
The thickness of the Thermosphere is 210 kilometers. It is 300 Km. away from Earth.
Does people live in the thermosphere or inner layer of the atmosphere?
No. The thermosphere is above 80 km in the atmosphere.
Where is the ionosphhere?
The ionosphere begins at around 85 km and ends at around 600 km, making it start in the border of mesosphere/ thermosphere and end in the border of thermosphere/ exosphere.
What is thickness of the thermosphere?
The thickness of the thermosphere is about 11 kilometers - 30 km. 85 - 600 kilometers not 11 - 30
How many miles away from earth does the thermosphere end?
The thermosphere is what we call the layer between the mesosphere and the exosphere. We associate that name with the region of the atmosphere between altitudes of 90 to 1,000 km (56 to 621 miles).
Where is the thermosphere?
The thermosphere is a layer of Earth's atmosphere above the mesosphere. The thermosphere extends from 50 to 55 miles (80-90 km) above sea level, with the upper limit undefined. The temperature in the thermosphere initially rises rapidly with heights up to about 120 miles (200 km) and thereafter increases more slowly. Above 120 miles (200 km) - depending on solar activity - the temperature varies between 600° and 2000°C (1100 and 3600°F).
What are the four layers of the atmosphere from lowest to highest?
Well let me start with this, there are 5 layers on earths atmosphere, the Troposhere, Strotosphere, Mesosphere, Thermosphere, and Exosphere. The main layer is the Troposphere because that is were our weather mainly happens.
What is the depth of the thermosphere?
Hi there! Here's the answer, darling: The depth is about 80-90 km. above the sea's level.
What layer of the earth's atmosphere is the hottest?
The thermosphere is the hottest layer of Earth's atmosphere. The molecules there are directly exposed to solar radiation and high-energy cosmic rays. However, there are so few molecules by volume that the specific heat is virtually zero. The thermosphere is generally located 85 to 500 km above the Earth, and the International Space Station orbits in the outer thermosphere (330 to 450 km altitude).
