1 . As we gain altitude the Tropsplets. sonporm- air - a) Increases; decreases b) Decreases, decreases c) decreases; increases d) Both remain about the same regandless of aliude 2.The zero point for determining lines oflatitude is longitude is the ;the zero- determining linesof a) Prime meridian, tropic of cancer b) Prime meridian, equator c) Tropic of cancer; north and south poles d) Equator; prime meridian 3. With respect to the emission of Electromagnetic Radiation, scientists have shws tohust the hotier the obijgnc The longer the wavelength of its peak emission shonter the wavelength of its peak emission c) The more its emission is evenly distributed across all wavelengths .The pressure gradient force causes air on the sarface of the earts to w from a) low pressure to high pressure b) high pressure to low pressure c) air flows in either direction 5. The uneven distribution of solar energy based os latitude is primarily a resl of a) variability in the output of the sun b) the changing distance of Earth from the Sun c) Earth's Sphericity d) Earth's rotation on its axis 6. If we compare land and water, we find that a) b) c) Water has a higher specific heat Land has a higher specifie heat Land and water have about the same specific heat 7. As a result of maritime influence, cities located necar a coast generally experience an annual temperature range that is those of cities located in the interior at the same latitude and altitude. a) b) c) the same as greater than smaller thanExplanation / Answer
1) b) Decreases, decreases
The surface of the earth is able to absorb more heat than the atmospheric air.So as we go up in the troposphere the temperature decreases . As we go up there will less air , so that the pressure exerted decreases.
2) d) equator ,prime meridian
Equator is the line of 0o latitude.
The zero point of longitude is in Greenwich, England .It is called as Prime Meridian.
