What is the altitude in geometry?
Altitude is the height of a shape. The point where all altitudes of a closed shape meet is called the orthocenter. To FIND an altitude rest one flat side of the shape on the "ground" and measure straight up to the point furthest from the ground. In other words, measure at a right angle from the line segment forming one side across to a line segment or vertex on the opposite side. Example: Altitude of a square, measure any side -- the altitude of the "top" is the same height as any other side, since all sides are at right angles and the distance from the bottom to the top is the same anywhere on the square.
What is diagonally?
from left top to right bottom or right top to left bottom
What is the pointed top of a mountain?
The top of a mountain is called the summit.
What is the word for a mountain with a flat top?
A mesa is a flat-topped mountain.
Is a parallellogram a trapezoid?
No, a parallellogram has the same both "top" and "bottom" size. A trapezoid has diffrent both "top" and "bottom" size.
Is the altitude greater at the top of a mountain?
A mountain top is higher (greater) in altitude. That is the definition of altitude : height above a surface, or above sea level.
Is air density greater at the top or the bottom of a mountain?
Air density is greater at the bottom of a mountain due to the higher atmospheric pressure caused by the weight of the air above. As you move higher up the mountain, the air becomes less dense because the pressure decreases with altitude.
Where is the air pressure greater at the bottom at the top of the mountain?
on the bottom of the mountainbeacause you are more below air level
What land form may have several different climate zones from bottom to top?
A mountain or a tall peak may have several different climate zones from bottom to top due to changes in altitude. As altitude increases, the temperature typically decreases, resulting in different climate zones such as tropical at the base, temperate in the middle, and alpine at the summit.
With a wet adiabatic lapse rate of 6 degrees per Km what is the temperature at the top of the mountain?
If the wet adiabatic lapse rate is 6 degrees per kilometer, the temperature decreases by 6 degrees for every kilometer gained in altitude. To find the temperature at the top of the mountain, you need to know the initial temperature at the base of the mountain and the altitude gained to the top of the mountain. Start with the base temperature and subtract 6 degrees for every kilometer of altitude gained.
Why the density of air is greater on ground than top of mountain?
The density of air is greater at ground level because of the weight of the air above pressing down. As you go higher in altitude, there is less air above exerting pressure, leading to lower air density at the top of a mountain.
How is air pressure different from the top of the mountain vs the bottom of a mountain?
Air pressure decreases as altitude increases, so at the top of a mountain, the air pressure is lower compared to the bottom of the mountain. This is because there is less air above pushing down on the air below at higher altitudes.
Where will the atmospheric pressure greater at the base of the mountain or at the top why?
The atmospheric pressure will be greater at the base of the mountain because pressure decreases with increasing altitude due to the weight of the overlying air. This means that as you climb higher up a mountain, the pressure will decrease.
Would the pressure be greater at the top of a mountain or at the bottom of it?
At the bottom. You can think of the air pressure at a given location as being the weight of all the air in a column above it. Thus, the higher you go, the less air there is above you, and thus the lower the air pressure. In the extreme, when you rise out of the athmosphere, there is no air above you at all, and the air pressure is effectively zero - a vacuum. Air pressure is greater at the bottom of a mountain.
What is the depth of an underwater mountain?
An underwater mountain has height from the ocean bottom, the top and bottom of the mountain have depth from the surface of the water.
Where is faster to boil on top of the mountain or on the ground of a mountain?
on the top of the mountain as pressure is greater so water will boil quicker
Why is the air pressure lower at the top of a mountain than at the bottom of the mountain?
The air pressure is lower at the top of a mountain because there is less air above pressing down on it, resulting in lower atmospheric pressure. This is due to the decrease in the density of air molecules at higher altitudes.
