Does the density of the earths atmosphere increase with altitude or decrease?
The density of Earth's atmosphere decreases with altitude. As you move higher up in the atmosphere, there are fewer molecules of gases present, leading to lower density.
What layer of the atmosphere has the highest density of gas molecules?
The troposphere, the lowest layer of the atmosphere, has the highest density of gas molecules. As you move higher into the atmosphere, such as into the stratosphere or mesosphere, the density of gas molecules decreases.
Why does the density of the atmosphere decrease with the height?
ice floats on top of water due to its lower density.... similarly, the gases with lower density lies in the upper atmospheric layers and the ones with larger density lie on the lower most atmospheric layers. so the overall density of air decreases with height.
Compare and contrast average density and critical density?
the average density is the total amount of matter in the universe, whereas the critical density is about 10 to the -26th power kg/m cubed (to the third power), the dividing point between a closed or open universe.... :)
Is it true that the moons average density is similar to the density of earths core?
No, the average density of Earth's Moon is about 3.3 g/cm^3, which is much lower than the average density of Earth's core. The core of the Earth is composed of mainly iron and nickel, giving it a much higher average density compared to the Moon.
Does Saturn have the largest atmosphere and lowest average density of all planets?
Jupiter has the largest atmosphere Saturn has the lowest density
What is the average density of titan?
Take your mom's density and divide it by 9.999 x10 ^99.
What planet is very large has a thick atmosphere and low density?
Saturn is the least dense out of all of the planets in our solar system. Its average density is around 0.7 g/cc (less than water). It also has a thick Hydrogen/Helium atmosphere.
Does the density of the earths atmosphere increase with altitude or decrease?
The density of Earth's atmosphere decreases with altitude. As you move higher up in the atmosphere, there are fewer molecules of gases present, leading to lower density.
Which planet has an extremely low density atmosphere?
Venus has an extremely low density atmosphere that is composed mainly of carbon dioxide, with trace amounts of water vapor and sulfuric acid. The atmospheric pressure on Venus is about 92 times that of Earth's, creating a dense, thick atmosphere.
Does the density of the earth's atmosphere increase with altitude?
The atmosphere becomes less dense with altitude. Atmosphere, thin though it is, has weight, and it is the weight of the air above which compresses the air below it, to greater density.
What happens if your density is lighter than the density of air?
you will start to float upwards in the atmosphere. The density of air decreases as you go higher in the atmosphere. You will stop going upwards when you reach a height where the air density is the same as your density.
The Moon's average density is about the same as the density of which of the Earth's layers?
The moon's average density is about the same as the density of mantle of the Earth.
What layer of the atmosphere has the highest density of gas molecules?
The troposphere, the lowest layer of the atmosphere, has the highest density of gas molecules. As you move higher into the atmosphere, such as into the stratosphere or mesosphere, the density of gas molecules decreases.
What are the measuring standards when computing density in gases?
Standar conditions for the measurement of gas density is stablished at 0°C and a pressure of 29.92 inches of mercury wich is the average pressure of the atmosphere at sea level.
What is the density of the atmosphere?
The density of the Earth's atmosphere varies with altitude, but at sea level it is approximately 1.2 kg/m^3. As you move higher in the atmosphere, the density decreases.
How does average density affect bouyancy?
The average density of an object determines its buoyancy. If the average density of an object is less than the density of the fluid it is in, it will float. If the average density is greater, it will sink. Buoyancy relies on the difference in densities between the object and the fluid.
