The rotation of the earth is the reason for gravity. The gravitaional force pulls all matter towards the center of the earth, including gases such as oxygen or carbon dioxide in the air. This causes all matter to congregate near the ground. Because all the matter is near the ground, at higher altitudes there is less matter and therefore the air is less dense.
The rotation of the earth is NOT the reason for gravity. In fact, as far as we know, there is no "reason" for gravity. The rotation of the earth affects atmospheric pressure in very complex, indirect ways. The rotation of the earth creates the Coriolis effect. It also moves the atmosphere across the region of direct solar influence. Whoever wrote the original answer (above) is an idiot.
Yes. Atmospheric pressure is the pressure caused by air when it exerts pressure on the surface of earth.
They affect because earths rotation can go larger and sorter from sun and ,tilt affects because it can move earth at every side and that has a shadow in other part of earth.
Standard atmospheric pressure at sea level is about 14.7 PSI. So, then what is the pressure at about 5,645 feet below the surface of the earth?
It provides evidence of the Earth's rotation on its axis.
The measure of force with which air molecules are pushing on earths surface is called air pressure. At sea level, at what we call standard atmospheric pressure, the pressure is about 14.696 PSI, or about 29.92 inHg, or about 760 mmHg. This is 101.324
The rotation of the Earth on its axis does not directly affect weather patterns. Rotation influences the length of day and night, but weather is primarily influenced by factors such as temperature, atmospheric pressure, humidity, and wind patterns.
earthquake No, not earthquake, but changes in atmospheric pressure.
I dont do science i am a more pe type
-- day and night -- rotation of atmospheric pressure systems -- rotation of the plane of Foucault's pendulum -- rotation of ocean eddies and currents -- apparent rising and setting of sky objects
The atmospheric pressure is greatest at sea level, which is at the Earth's surface. As altitude increases, atmospheric pressure decreases.
Atmospheric pressure is lower at the poles compared to the equator because of the Earth's shape and rotation. The polar regions receive less direct sunlight, causing the air to be cooler and denser. This creates high-pressure systems that lead to lower atmospheric pressure.
The atmosphere doesn't affect the earth's rotation, however the earth's rotation generates the Coriolis force which deflects wind to the left in the southern hemisphere and right in the northern hemisphere. Unless you're talking about things like atmospheric angular momentum exchange induced by frictional and mountain torque, but I'm guessing not...
Neptune's atmospheric pressure is about 10 times greater than Earth's atmospheric pressure. Neptune's strong gravitational pull compresses its atmosphere, leading to much higher pressure levels compared to Earth.
No, Mars has a much lower atmospheric pressure compared to Earth. The average surface pressure on Mars is about 0.6% of Earth's atmospheric pressure at sea level, making it too thin to support human life without a pressure suit.
Earth's atmospheric pressure is measured as 1 bar. Jupiter's atmospheric pressure is 100 million bars. Therefore, it is 100 million times greater
The global winds separate into three bands due to a combination of the Earth's rotation, the uneven distribution of heat from the sun, and the Coriolis effect. These forces create the Polar Easterlies, the Prevailing Westerlies, and the Trade Winds.
At the surface of the Earth, about 99% of the atmosphere's total mass is located below 32 km. This is where most of the atmospheric pressure is concentrated. Therefore, the greatest fraction of atmospheric pressure is present at the Earth's surface.
