less than 500 feet its considered a rolling plain, 500-999 feet, a hill, and over 1000 feet is considered a mountain

that is wrong

it should be above 600 meters

Does a object weigh more at the top of a tall mountain or at sea level?

An object will weigh slightly less at the top of a tall mountain compared to at sea level due to the decreased gravitational pull at higher altitudes. This is because gravitational acceleration decreases with distance from the center of the Earth.


How tall is k2 in inches?

K2 is the second- highest mountain on Earth, after Mount Everest, with a peakelevation of 8,611 meters.That's 28,251 feet, and 339,012 inches.Perhaps it might also be useful to you to know that it's 8,611,000 millimeters.


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.


How much does a mountain weigh?

There are several factors in determining how much a mountain weighs. How tall the mountain is, size of the mountain, it's density, and if someone is measuring the mountain from sea level or from just the base of the mountain are some of the factors to consider. For example Mount Everest is the highest mountain in altitude at 29,035 ft (8,850m)above sea level. Mauna Kea in Hawaii however, is the tallest mountain at 33,436 ft from its base in the bottom of the Pacific Ocean but only rises 13,796 feet above sea level. Now, Mount Chimborazo in Ecuador has an altitude of 20,703 feet (6,310 meters). But, Chimborazo has the distinction of being the highest mountain above Earth's center. Which would be noteworthy if measuring these mountains (mathematically speaking) from the same point of reference.


What is a Rock mass or mountain peak shaped like a needle?

A rock mass or mountain peak shaped like a needle is known as a spire or pinnacle. These features are tall, thin, and often have a pointed or jagged top, similar in appearance to a needle. Spire formations are commonly found in mountainous regions and can be formed through erosion or volcanic activity.
