Temperatures generally rise as the altitude increases in the troposphere and layers of the atmosphere?

stratosphere and thermosphere


Within a thunderstorm cell does the temperature fall or rise with increasing altitude?

Temperatures fall with height in a thunderstorm cell. Temperatures generally fall with height in the atmosphere unless there's an inversion present (and those lead to a stable atmosphere not favorable for thunderstorm development)....So if there's thunderstorms present, temperatures should be falling with height.


In what layer of the atmosphere do temperatures rise with altitude A. Troposphere B. Stratosphere C. Mesosphere D. Mesopause?

THE ANSWER IS B the stratosphere a.k.a. layer S temperatures increase in this layer


What is the change of air temperature with height?

Temperatures decrease with altitude in the troposphere, the lowest layer of the atmosphere, from an average of about 20° C to below -50° C. In the next layer, the stratosphere, temperatures warm only slightly up to the ozone layer at the top of the stratosphere, where they increase rapidly with altitude until becoming about the same as on the earth's surface. Temperatures in the next layer, the mesosphere, cool rapidly with altitude to below -80° C. Temperatures rise rapidly with increases in altitude in the next layer, the thermosphere, but temperatures there can vary widely. Depending on the activity of ionized particles within this region, they reach a high of over 1,200° C in the daytime and become extremely cold at night. The next layer is the exosphere, which cools with altitude to where it ends about 1,000 km above the earth's surface.


As you go up in altitude going higher in the atmosphere does the temperature of the air in the troposphere increase or decrease?

Air pressure decreases as you move away from the earth into the atmosphere. Think of it as the air above you pushes down on you. The farther up you go, the less air is above you to push down. Air temp also decreases as you go up.

Why does temperature rise as altitude increases in the stratosphere?

It begins to get warmer from the sun's radiation.

How does a chemical reaction change in different temperatures?

The chemicals rise in the air, causing a tremendous rise in temperatures. OR it may not affect their weather at all. Generally speaking, rate of reactions of gases or liquids increases as the temperature increases. This is due to the increase of kinetic energy which makes the atoms/molecules/etc. to collide more frequently and hence carrying out the reaction more rapidly. At very low temperatures, the chemical reaction may not start as it requires a specific amount of energy to kick-start, known as the activation energy.


What happens to solubility of a substance when their is rise in temperature?

Generally, as temperature increases, solubility increases. There are a few cases where the opposite happens, though.


As temperatures rise the body temperatures of what organisms rise?

As temperatures rise, the body temperatures of heterotherms also rise. This is in contrast to homeotherms, who have a constant body temperature.

Are there any special tips for high-altitude grilling?

Grilling normal foods don't generally have any changes due to altitude. This is a problem more for people who are attempting to bake something that needs to rise.


What happends when quantity supplied is less than quantity demanded?

Generally, prices will fall and only rise again when demand increases.


Why does the balloon rise to a particular height above the ground and does not rise further?

At ground level its density is less than the air around it, so it rises, as the altitude increases air density decreases, when the density of the balloon and the air are equal it stops rising.
