What else can I help you with?
What is the air that surrounds the earth called?
It is called the Atmosphere.
The measure of the force with air molecules push on a surface is called?
The measure of the force due to air pressing on a surface is called the force.If you divide that by the area of the surface, then you have the pressure.
Which process produces rising air due to unequal heating of earths surface?
Frontal wedging
How do convection uplift occurs?
A parcel of air is uplifted when it initially gains heat from the surface causing convective uplift.When the air is warmed by the surface it will expand and become less dense relative to air that surrounds it. - See more at: http://www.chacha.com/question/can-you-briefly-describe-how-convective-uplift-occurs#sthash.JinBHwPh.dpuf
What are facts about air resistance?
What type of friction is air resistance?fluid friction. Air resistance is fluid friction. Air resistance occurs between the surface of a falling object and the air that surrounds it. Rolling friction occurs when a rounded surface moves over a solid and sliding friction occurs when a solid moves over another solid. Static friction occurs when a solid touches another solid but there is no movement.What two factors affect air resistance?size and shape. Size and shape are the two factors that affect air resistance. Air resistance works with surface area, so the more surface area, the more air resistance. Think about when you drop two pieces of paper: one crumpled and one flat. The crumpled one falls faster because there is less air resistance acting on the paper.
What do you call the body of air which surrounds our planet?
The pocket of air that surrounds the earth is called the earths Atmosphere
What is it called when cool air is trapped under earths surface?
A temperature inversion.
What is the air above the earths surface called?
The layer of air above the Earth's surface is called the atmosphere. It is composed of various gases and extends several kilometers into space.
What is the thin layer of air that surrounds is the earth called?
The thin layer of air that surrounds the Earth is called the atmosphere. It is composed of various gases and extends several hundred kilometers above the Earth's surface.
The pocket of air that surrounds the earth is called?
The pocket of air that surrounds the earth is called? In:Uncategorized [Edit categories][Improve]
When dense air sinks toward earths surface what is it called?
The dense air sinking towards the Earth's surface is called subsidence. Subsidence can lead to high pressure systems and stable weather conditions.
What Is the air that surrounds earth?
It is called the Atmosphere.
What is the air that surrounds the earth called?
It is called the Atmosphere.
What causes air to move with the earths surface?
convection
Where is the highest air pressure?
air pressure is the highest near the earths surface
What is horizontal movement of air in realtion to the earths surface?
updraught
The force with which air pushes on the earth's surface is called?
The measure of force with which air molecules are pushing on earths surface is called air pressure. At sea level, at what we call standard atmospheric pressure, the pressure is about 14.696 PSI, or about 29.92 inHg, or about 760 mmHg. This is 101.324
