This process is known as deposition and is the opposite of sublimation, hence why it is sometimes called desublimation

The reverse of deposition is sublimation and hence sometimes deposition is called desublimation. One example of deposition is the process by which, in sub-freezing air, water vapor changes directly to ice without first becoming a liquid. ... This causes the water vapor to change directly into a solid.

Marina86 [1]

Answer:

surfaces of uniform composition

Explanation:

Air Mass is a volume of air characterized by temperature and water vapor content and stretched for 100 kilometers.

Classified according to the latitude and the source regions, like cold air mass found in cooler polar regions and warm masses form over the hotter and drier regions of continents and maritime air mass are found at the seas and oceanic masses.

As air mass differs based on there densities they have humid and temperature conditions and can be modified in various ways, an increase or decrease of temperature is also affected by the large scale environmental conditions.

A satellite orbiting earth has a tangential velocity of 5000 m/s. earth’s mass is kg and its radius is m. which is the distance

inessss [21]

The distance of the satellite form the earth is:
9,608,000 m (Option C) in Standard form, this is written as 9.6 x 10 $^{6}$ .

<h3>What is an Orbiting Satellite?</h3>

An Orbiting Satellite is a satellite that goes around the earth in an elliptical path known as an orbit.

To calculate the distance of the satellite from the earth we must equalize the force of Gravity to Centripetal Force given that these are the two forces that are at play here.

Step 1:

Equation that equalizes Gravity to Centripetality is:

G = mM/r² = m(v²/r)

Note that G = 6.67 x 10 $^{-11}$ (This is a gravitational constant.)

m is the Mass of the Satellite

M is Mass of the Earth

r is the distance of the satellite from the center of the earth

v is the satellites tangential velocity

Step 2 - Rearrange the formula and substitute the numbers above to get r

r = G (m/v²) = (6.67 x 10 $^{-11}$ ) (6 x10 $^{24}$ /5000²) =

= 1.6 x 10 $^{7}$ m

Recall that form our postulation above, this is the satellites distance form the center of the earth.

To get it's distance form the earth's surface, we must know remove the value of the radius of the earth from the calculation. Where radius of the earth is given a r'

Hence,

r' = r - R = 1.6 x 10 $^{7}$ m - 6.4 x 10 $^{6}$ m

= 9.6 x $10^{6}$ m or 9,608,000 m
