FACTS ABOUT LAYERS OF ATMOSPHERE BY THESE PANDEMIC TIMES
HI GUYS, I WELCOME YOU ALL TO YET ANOTHER POST FROM 'THESE PANDEMIC TIMES' BLOG. AS YOU KNOW THAT WE COME UP WITH SUCH AMAZING POSTS TO MAKE YOU FEEL LESS BORED DURING THESE PANDEMIC TIMES.
SO TODAY IN THIS POST WE ARE GOING TO LEARN SOME FACTS ABOUT THE LAYERS OF ATMOSPHERE. WE ALL KNOW THE LAYERS OF ATMOSPHERE BUT TODAY WE ARE GOING TO LEARN FACTS ABOUT THEM.
SO LETS GET STARTED WITH THE FIRST THE FIRST LAYER OF ATMOSPHERE THAT IS TROPOSPHERE:-
1)THIS IS THE FIRST LAYER OF ATMOSPHERE.
2) THIS LAYER EXTENDS BETWEEN 5 TO 9 MILES. THIS DEPENDS ON THE PART OF EARTH ON WHICH YOU ARE LOOKING AT. IN COLDER REGIONS THE TROPOSPHERE IS THINNER.
3) TROPOPAUSE, IS THE BOUNDARY SEPARATING TROPOSPHERE AND THE STRATOSPHERE.
4) TROPOSPHERE IS THE MOST TURBULENT LAYER. PLANES FLY IN THIS LAYER, BUT THE CABINS MUST BE PRESSURIZED DUE TO THE LACK OF OXYGEN AND EXTREMELY LOW TEMPERATURE.
SECOND LAYER OF ATMOSPHERE- STRATOSPHERE
1) ITS ALTITUDE IS REALLY VERY HIGH. THIS LAYER EXTENDS FROM ABOUT 6 MILES TO ABOUT 30 MILES.
2) THERE'S A LOT OF STRATOSPHERIC SPACE TO EXPLORE IN THAT 24-MILE WIDE BAND OF RARIFIED AIR THAT SOMETIMES JUST TOUCHES THE TOP OF MT.EVEREST.
3) TEMPERATURE IN STRATOSPHERE INCREASES WITH HEIGHT.
4) PILOTS WANTING TO CREATE A SMOOTH RIDE FOR THEIR PASSENGERS FLY ABOVE THE TROPOPAUSE IN THE STRATOSPHERE, WHERE THERE ARE NO THUNDER STORMS AND RAIN.
THIRD LAYER OF THE ATMOSPHERE- MESOSPHERE
1) IT IS THE COLDEST LAYER SURROUNDING THE EARTH.
2) MOST OF THE METEORS BURN IN THIS LAYER, BEFORE THEY REACH EARTH.
3) THIS LAYER IS COMPOSED OF OXYGEN, NITROGEN AND CARBON DIOXIDE.
4) IT LIES ABOVE THE HIGHEST POINT FOR PLANES TO FLY, BUT BELOW THE LOWEST POINT FOR SPACESHIPS.
FOURTH LAYER OF ATMOSPHERE- THERMOSPHERE
1) IT IS THE HOTTEST LAYER OF ATMOSPHERE, AS IT ABSORBS SUN'S RADIATION.
2) THE FAMOUS NORTHERN LIGHTS OR AURORA OCCUR MOSTLY HERE.
3) SATELLITES ORBIT THE EARTH FROM HERE.
4) THE THERMOSPHERE FADES FROM THE SHADE OF BLUE TO THE BLACKNESS OF SPACE.
LAST LAYER OF ATMOSPHERE- EXOSPHERE
1) IT MERGES WITH THE OUTER SPACE.
2) AIR IS VERY THIN IN ATMOSPHERE, AND IT IS MOSTLY MADE UP OF HYDROGEN AND HELIUM.
3) THE UPPER LAYER OF ATMOSPHERE IS THE FARTHEST POINT FROM THE EARTH THAT IS STILL AFFECTED BY GRAVITY.
4) IT'S THICKNESS IS ABOUT 6,200 MILES.
SO, THESE WERE SOME THE AMAZING FACTS ABOUT ATMOSPHERE. WE WILL COME UP WITH MORE AMAZING POSTS SO THAT YOU DON'T GET BORED. PLEASE SHARE YOUR FEEDBACK IN THE COMMENT SECTION. SPREAD THE SMILE NOT THE VIRUS. GOOD BYE!!!!
Thnx for the knowledge...:) It was interesting
