Which layer extends to an average altitude of about 12 km?
The troposphere is the layer of the atmosphere that extends to an average altitude of about 12 km. This is where most weather phenomena occur and where temperature generally decreases with increasing altitude.
What are the four levels of cloud heights?
High cloud, middle cloud, low cloud, and anvil heat.
Air pressure at an altitude of 3 km is it less than the air pressure at 1 km?
Yes, air pressure decreases with increasing altitude. Therefore, the air pressure at 3 km would be lower than the air pressure at 1 km.
What is the layer of the earth's atmosphere closest to the surface?
The stratosphere (about 10 to 50 km altitude) is above the lowest level, the troposphere, and is separated from it by the tropopause. (see related question)
Are cirrus low or high?
Cirrus clouds are high-level clouds. They form at altitudes above 20,000 feet (6,000 meters) in the Earth's atmosphere and are typically composed of ice crystals. These clouds appear thin, wispy, and high in the sky and are often associated with fair weather or the approach of a warm front.
What cloud is thin high and feathery?
Wispy, feathery cluds are called cirrus clouds. Cirrus comes from a word meaning "a curl." Cirrus clouds form at high altitudes, usually above 6 km, and at low temperatures. They are made of ice crystals and indicate fair weather.
2.75km altitude is equal to what altitude in meters?
1 km = 1,000 meters2.75 km = (2.75 x 1,000) = 2,750 meters
Ozone layer sets in an altitude of?
Ozone sets in stratosphere. The altitude of it is 28 km.
Are Cirro stratus clouds high clouds?
Yes, cirrostratus clouds are high clouds that form above 20,000 feet in the atmosphere. They are thin, wispy clouds that often cover the sky in a thin veil, causing a halo effect around the sun or moon.
Which layer extends to an average altitude of about 12 km?
The troposphere is the layer of the atmosphere that extends to an average altitude of about 12 km. This is where most weather phenomena occur and where temperature generally decreases with increasing altitude.
What are the four levels of cloud heights?
High cloud, middle cloud, low cloud, and anvil heat.
What is the air pressure at the altitude of 4 km?
4
Air pressure at an altitude of 3 km is it less than the air pressure at 1 km?
Yes, air pressure decreases with increasing altitude. Therefore, the air pressure at 3 km would be lower than the air pressure at 1 km.
What layer of the atmosphere has an altitude 12 km?
At an altitude of 12 km, you are primarily in the stratosphere. This layer extends from about 10 km to approximately 50 km above Earth's surface and is characterized by a temperature increase with altitude, primarily due to the presence of the ozone layer. The stratosphere is where commercial jet aircraft typically fly and is above the troposphere, where most weather events occur.
The stratospheric ozone layer forms at what altitude?
The stratospheric ozone layer forms at high altitude. It is 25 km.
How tall is the stratusphere?
the stratosphere is about 25-50 km in altitude
What are the charerictics of the mesosphere?
the altitude is 10 negative 85 km
