1. The composition of dry air at sea level is nearly the same everywhere on Earth’s surface and up to an altitude of about 80 km.
2. The five main components of the atmosphere are nitrogen , oxygen, water vapor, ozone, and the particulates.
3. The cause of atmospheric pressure is exerted equally in all directions up, down, and sideways.
4. The two types of barometers measure atmospheric pressure , atm , millimeters and or inches of mercury and the millibars mb. Therefore, the two barometers are the mercurial and the aneroid.
5. The layer of the atmosphere in which weather occurs is called the troposphere.
6. The four main layers of the atmosphere are the troposphere , the stratosphere, the mesosphere, the thermosphere.
7. The two …show more content…
The long wavelength may include the long wavelength and the short wavelength.
The long wavelength may be a microwave , a tv . Therefore, the short wavelength may be x-rays .
3. Therefore , the ozone in the upper atmosphere may all absorb and most of the parts are short of the wavelength radiation. As well as the CO2 as well as H2O , which is absorbed with the vapor from the water infrared radiation in the lower atmosphere.
4. The visible light and infrared energy warm Earth by reaching Earth’s surface as adsorbed. The heated way is of the surfaces radiate the heat back into the air where all the greenhouses of the gases absorb at least some heat.
5. The variations in the intensity of the sunlight can cause temperature differences on Earth’s surface because of the concentrated sunlight of the equator which makes the surface warm and at the higher latitudes, where of course the sunlight spreads over a way larger and the area of the surface is at a cool temperature.
6. The process of conduction is the transfer of the energy as the heat through a material. Therefore, convection is the movement of matter due to the differences in the density that is caused by the temperature variations, which may result in the transfer of energy as the
