Because the ________

Geography
1 answer:
Kamila [148]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Because the gravity of the Earth is pulling on air molecules and pressing it against the ground, our atmosphere is thinner and thinner the higher up you go.

Explanation:

Earth is a planet that has an active core, thus it has a reasonably strong gravitational pull. Gravity manages to keep all things on the surface of our planet and the ones that are in the atmosphere to pull them down or keep them near. This affects the atmosphere as well.

The atmosphere is composed of gases, all of which are made out of atoms and molecules. They are very light, so Earth is pulling them towards it. This has resulted in a situation where the majority of the gases are close to the surface, in the lowest parts of the atmosphere, and as we go up there is less and less of them, so the atmosphere is thinner and thinner as the elevation increases.

The correct answer is C. There is a large amount of rain or snow in the air.

Explanation

According to the fragment of the question that states that "To use a radar, a weather tower sends out radio waves and then detects the waves that are reflected back to the tower" it is possible to infer that the radar waves that are reflected towards the tower They are the product of the collision of these waves with an object that is in the air such as rain. Therefore, in the case in which a large number of radio waves are reflected towards the tower in a particular area, it can be said that this is due to a large number of objects in the air in this area such as rain or snow. So the correct answer is C. There is a large amount of rain or snow in the air.
