-air density decreases with elevation
-fewer air molecules to warmer by conduction
The lowest temperature is usually observed:

around sunrise.
,density
Give this one a try later!
amount of mass in a given space (volume)
-density=mass / volume
Amplitude

half the height from peak of wave crest to lowest part of
wave trough
-we categorize different types of electromagnetic radiation
on the basis of wavelength
wavelengths _________ than violet (.4µm) are ___
Give this one a try later!
shorter, UV

, -freezing point of water
-below 32°F (0°C).
thermosphere
Give this one a try later!
-temperature increases increases with height
-The uppermost layer of the atmosphere
-often considered the "hot layer" because it contains the warmest
temperatures in the atmosphere.
-because the air is so thin, our bodies would not be able to detect this heat
when do high temperatures occur

-the hottest days of summer don't happen until after the summer solstice
-high temperatures don't usually happen until the late afternoon — typically
3 to 4 p.m.
