Even though you are getting closer to the sun as you ascend into the toposphere, why does the temperature drop?

Answer: The lower areas of the Atmosphere have a high temperature through the heats from the ground.

Explanation: High temperature experienced on the Earth surface is majorly caused by heats from the ground ( Earth crust).As a person ascend up to the Toposphere the temperature continues to reduce because because the heat from the ground is reduced as the heights increased.

It has been proven that as a person ascends into the Toposphere the amount of air and pressure reduces this will eventually lead to expansion of the gas particles which will then reduce the temperature.

Naddik [55]

The correct answer is - CaCl2

The calcium chloride is a salt, an inorganic compound. Its formula is CaCl2, with Ca being calcium, Cl being chloride, and the number 2 representing the number of chloride molecules.

The calcium chloride is a white colored crystalline solid when it is at room temperature, and it is highly soluble in water, acetone, and acetic acid. It has a molar mass of 110.98 g/mol, density of 2.15 g/cm³, and melting point at 772 °C.

When a fluid flows over an object, the "friction drag": __________.A.is the drag due to the shear stress only. B. depends only o
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

D. is greater for turbulent flow than for laminar flow

Explanation:

what is friction drag?

  • friction drag is a phenomenon experienced when a body moves through a fluid. A practical example can be seen in the mild warmth we experience rubbing the palm's of one's hand together only in this case we are dealing with a solid body and a fluid (e.g air, water). friction drag is directly proportional to the area of the surface in contact with the fluid and increases as velocity increases. We see a practical example of this when the rate at which one rubs the palms together is fast but we use the word turbulent when we are dealing with fluids. Turbulent flow creates more friction drag than laminar flow( Flow between a smooth body and fluid) due to its greater interaction with the surface of the body
  • it is important to know that friction is also called viscous drag or skin drag
