Question

Question 8: If you climbed a very tall mountain, the air pressure would become:

A-Lower.

B-Higher.

C-Stay the same.

D-First lower, but then higher.

E-First higher, then lower.

Question 9: The total heating at a location is determined by:

A-The angle of insolation.

B-The length of daylight.

C-The angle of insolation and the length of daylight.

D-None of the above.

Question 10: The environmental lapse rate is:

A-The loss of wetlands as measured from satellite imagery.

B-The rate of decrease in carbon dioxide.

C-The rate at which politicians claim to support the environment, but actually vote against the environment.

D-The rate at which temperature declines with latitude.

E-The rate at which temperature declines with elevation for stationary air (i.e. air that is not moving).

Answer 1

Answer 8, correct option is A. lower

answer 9, correct option is C. The angle of insolation and the length of daylight

Answer 10 , correct option is E. The rate at which temperature declines with elevation for stationary air

Step-by-step explanation:

when we climb tall mountain then air pressure is decrease because air pressure differ with the depth and height

as when we go on high mountain particles of air are very far apart so pressure decrease and when particles try to get close then pressure increase so here when we climb hill air pressure will lower

and

we know total heat is enthalpy H

enthalpy H = E + PV

here E is internal energy and

P is pressure and V is volume

and

we know sun strike Earth surface at the different angle

it's rang 0° to 90° ( 0 when it above horizon and 90 when directly overhead )

and when the Sun ray are vertical that time surface of Earth get all possible energy

so we can say that amount of daylight do affect the heating of a location because solar radiation is increased

so correct option is C. The angle of insolation and the length of daylight

and

we know ELR is rate of decrease of temperature t with altitude in the sationary atmosphere at the given location and timer

so

here correct option is E The rate at which temperature declines with elevation for stationary air
