The stratosphere makes up most nearly___________percent of the height of the atmosphere.
Stratosphere starts at 18km and ends at 50km of height. Hence its range is 32 km
The range of atmosphere (as depicted) = 800km
So, stratosphere constitutes of \(\frac{32}{800}\)*100% of the Atmosphere = 4%
A. 4
B. 10
C. 32
D. 80
If the reference objects in the diagram can exist only in the layer in which they are drawn but can appear anywhere within that layer, the closest that a weather balloon and an aurora could come to one another is____________kilometers.
The highest a HOT AIR BALLOON can go is 50km
The lowest an AURORA can come is 80km.
So, the minimum distance between them can be 30km
