What else can I help you with?
When a sound of source is refracted away from the surface of the earth it gives an indication that the?
sound speed is increasing with height above the ground. This refraction occurs due to a decrease in temperature with increasing altitude in the atmosphere, causing the sound waves to bend away from the surface of the Earth.
Does pressure decrease with depth below earth's surface?
pressure AND temperature increase as you go deeper into the earth's crust. pressure: because more and more weight is being forced downward. temperature: because the middle of the earth is magma, therefore the closer you get to it, the hotter it's going to feel.
When carbon dioxide in the atmosphere increases, the amount of energy absorbed by Earth’s surface should?
increase, causing the planet to warm due to the greenhouse effect.
Does conduction happen in the troposphere?
Yes, conduction does occur in the troposphere. It is the layer of the Earth's atmosphere closest to the surface where temperature decreases with increasing altitude. This temperature gradient allows for conduction as heat is transferred from the Earth's surface to the air above.
How the energy in waves originally came from the Sun?
The energy from waves is usually caused by the wind; the wind is caused by temperature differences among different parts of Earth; and these temperature differences are caused by the sunlight.
If ozone layer is destroyed on earth surfaces earth surface temperature decrease or increase?
it will increase (get hotter).
What would cause a decrease in the Earth's surface temperature?
In the winter, our part of the Earth tilts away from the sun, and another tilts towards it, that is why we have winter when, say, Australia has summer. As the Earth moves around the sun, its tilt is adjusted to the sun depending on where we are. (The distance of the Earth to the sun is also a factor.
Why does air temperature decrease with altitude?
because as we go up wards from the surface of the earth,air becomes thinner.
Do volcanic eruption increase or decrease the temperature of the earth?
increase
What is the meaning of surface temperature?
The temperature of the surface of the earth . How warm the earth can get . Xx
What could decrease Earth's temperature?
Lower solar input & higher infrared radiation at night could decrease Earth's temperature.
Explain why the temperature of the atmosphere does not increase or decrease steadily as you move from earth's surface toward space.?
The temperature in the Earth's atmosphere does not increase or decrease steadily as you move from the surface towards space because it is influenced by various factors such as solar radiation, atmospheric composition, and the Earth's surface features. These factors create complex interactions that lead to temperature variations at different altitudes, resulting in the atmosphere having distinct layers with different temperature profiles.
What does not influence temperatures?
The climate is usually measured by temperature and precipitation or rainfall. The Earth's surface does not have an impact on the temperature or climate.
Does the temperature in Earth's crust decrease in depth?
false, the temperature increases with depth
Is the earth cold?
A: Earth has a minimum surface temperature of -88°C and a maximum surface temperature of 58°C.
What planet has an average surface temperature of 14.6?
The planet with an average surface temperature of 14.6°C is Earth.
Why doesn't the atmosphere decrease nor increase steadily as you move from earths surface toward space?
The temperature in the atmosphere doesn't steadily increase or decrease as you move away from Earth's surface towards space because at the point where the atmospheric layers intersect, the temperature remains constant, just like when water changes state.
