Answer:

As the <u>temperature inversion</u> occurs around this zone

Explanation:

  • Troposphere The lowest layer of atmosphere found on the surface of the earth from 0 to 30 kilometers it's wider in equator i.e 18 km and narrows at poles till 6-8 km only. At this layer, 90 % of all convective activity takes place, turbulence and cloud formation like stuff.  
  • Consists of 80% of water vapor and dust particles. In troposphere the temperature in the air decrease with gain in height with a height of an overall positive lapse rate of 6.5 degrees C / km. The onset of tropopause the region where mixing stops and temperature remains constant and extends up to a layer of 11 to 20 kilometers.
  • However, lapse rate variation sometimes occurs in between this sphere and affects the altitude of the tropopause. The seasonal effect is strongest at the mid-latitudes and varies with changes latitudes.

Basile [38]

A dirt road would heat up and cool down the quickest

Explanation:

This is because the soil gets heated up faster than water which is a slow conductor of heat so water gets heated gradually.

On the other hand, the soil gets cooled down quickly than water which gets cooled down slowly. Soil absorbs heat whereas water reflects heat so when cooling down water loses a lot of energy.

Answer:

Let y be the price of the car and x be the number of years. The yearly price decrease:

y = 0.10ˣ

1) y = 0.10^(x/12)

2) y = 0.10^(x/52)

3) y = 0.10^(x/365)

4) The smaller the smaller the time interval measured, the less the amount decreases.
