the higher the altitude the cooler the air becomes in general. The air cools, condenses and turns to minute water droplets at these higher altitudes to produce more moisture in the air which in turn leads to greater amounts of rainfall. The lower altitudes with the warmer air can hold more water vapour and less therefore condenses to form rainfall. The hypothesis is based solely on the basis that air becomes cooler with increasing altitude. HYPOTHESIS Aberporth weather
D. Scholar Geography 1 November 11, 2012 Test Corrections #1 Question: Which atmospheric heating process involves the emission of energy from an object? Correct Answer: E) Radiation My Answer: D) Why it’s Wrong: Radiation is the right answer because it has much stronger. It’s stronger than transmission, scattering, reflection and absorption. A good example would be: if your wearing a black shirt out in the sun you would be much hotter than if you’re wearing a white shirt. The black shirt would also fade over time because the suns rays would eat up the shirt.
The ground heats up and emits infrared radiation. Atmospheric gases absorb the infrared radiation and warm the atmosphere, which in turn warms the ground. 15. What is ozone? Why is it important?
Dark surfaces absorb more light energy, and heat, making the entire building warmer. Buildings with brick walls or roofs, if coated with dark coatings, also get heated up very quickly. In both cases, this heat is transferred both inside the structure and radiated into the surrounding air. Buildings with dark surfaces heat up more rapidly and require more cooling from air conditioning, which requires more energy from things such as power plants, resulting in more pollution. Also air conditioners exchange heat with atmospheric air, causing further local heating.
Combined their light is about 160 times brighter than sunlight. The two red dwarfs of the Capella star system are quite different than the yellow giants and the Sun. They have less than half the mass of the Sun. They also have much cooler temperatures, which give the stars their red color. These stars also have a fraction of the brightness of the Sun or their companion yellow giant.

Theses surfaces have a higher thermal capacity than natural surfaces and are able to absorb large quantities of heat during the day and slowly release it during the night. This is the main contributor in the temperature difference between rural and urban areas. Given that most of the city is covered in these building material s there is bound to be a change in climatic characteristics. However there are other factors such as central heating, traffic fumes, factories, power station and the people
Depending on the current temperature on the stove the only way that you would be able to make the stove burn hotter would be to raise the amount of voltage. This means that the voltage would have to be multiplied to make the stove have a larger resistance thus making the heat higher. 7. The Hubble Space Telescope can see stars and galaxies where brightness is 1/50 of the faintest objects now observable using ground-based telescopes. Use the fact that the brightness of a point source, such as a star, varies inversely as the square of its distance from an observer to show that the space telescope can see about seven times farther than a ground-based telescope.
Phenomena on the Sun’s surface | 1. Prominences, solar flares and sunspots are examples of phenomena that occur on the surface of the sun. 2. These phenomena are believed to occur because of the changes in the magnetic field of the sun. Prominences 1.
El Nino – The phenomenon and its effect and its effects on southern Australia El Nino is a strange weather phenomenon that that is caused by the warming of the Pacific Ocean near the equator, off the coast of South America. This happens when the normal winds weaken which allows the warm water that is usually found in the western Pacific change
