What are the ways elevation affects weather and climate?

Geography

As you increase in elevation, there is less air above you thus the pressure decreases. As the pressure decreases, air molecules spread out further (i.e. air expands) and the temperature decreases. If the humidity is at 100 percent (because it's snowing), the temperature decreases more slowly with height.

Calculate the total mass of water in kg on Earth's surface from the following data: total planetary surface area: 510,066,000 km
irinina [24]

Answer:

The total mass of water in on Earth's surface is 3.61419\times 10^{22} kg.

Explanation:

Total planetary surface area = T = 510,066,000 km^2

Total land area of planet = L = 148,647,000 km^2

Total water area of planet = W

T = L + W

510,066,000 km^2=148,647,000 km^2-W

W=510,066,000 km^2-148,647,000 km^2=361,419,000 km^2

Volume = Area × Depth

Volume of water on earth = V

V= 361,419,000 km^2\times 100 km^=36,141,900,000 km^3

km^3=10^{12} L

V=36,141,900,000 km^3=36,141,900,000 \times 10^{12} L

Total mass of total water on the earth = M

Density of the water,D = 1 g/mL = 0.001 kg/0.001 L=1 kg/L

1 g - 0.001 kg

1 mL = 0.001 L

D=\frac{M}{V}

M=D\times V

M =1 kg/L\times 36,141,900,000 \times 10^{12} L=3.61419\times 10^{22} kg

The total mass of water in on Earth's surface is 3.61419\times 10^{22} kg.

The outer planets are made mostly of gas which makes them
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

less dense than the solid inner planets.

Explanation:

A planet can be defined as a large celestial body having sufficient mass to allow for self-gravity and make it assume a nearly circular shape (hydrostatic equilibrium), revolves in an orbit around the Sun in the solar system and has a cleared neighborhood.

Basically, the planets are divided into two (2) main categories and these includes;

I. Outer planets: these planets are beyond the asteroid belt and comprises of jupiter, saturn, uranus and neptune, from left to right of the solar system.

II. Inner planets: these planets are the closest to the sun and comprises of mercury, venus, earth and mars.

The outer planets are made mostly of gas (hydrogen and helium) which makes them less dense than the solid inner planets. These gases are generally known to be less dense in terms of physical properties.
