Question
mosphere of Mars is very thin. It has a small amount of Co2. was the predicted temperature assuming no greenhouse effect? what is the predicted temperature, given the CO2 content of the Martian atmosphere? 10. Why is Mercury hotter than the moon? a. If a planet has a reflectivity of 1.0, its temperature would be: very cold-.cool/warm depending on distance from the sun-very hot b. what happens to the temperature of Earth when you double the reflectivity? (increase the surface area of ice caps and glaciers.... id water on its surface (T range from OC to 100C) what is the range of distances 12. For Earth to have liqui the planet could be from the sun (in AU)? In other words, what is the habitable zone? 13. What are the four processes that shape planetary surfaces? 14 a. when were most craters formed on the terrestrial planets? b. T/F-all the terrestrial planets were bombarded and had craters on their surfaces. 15. Describe briefly the tectonic history of each (run the tectonic scenarios) Mercury (small terrestrial) Mars (medium terrestrial) Venus (large terrestrial) 16. Now we factor in the process of erosion: a planet needs an atmosphere and water (it should be relatively large and warm enough to have liquid water) What happens in these scenarios? Cold, small planet: Cold, large planet: Medium temp, small planet: Medium temp, medium size planet: Medium temp, large planet: Hot, small planet:Explanation / Answer
10: Mercury is very hotter than mon because it is very close to the sun.
11 (a) When the reflectivity is near to 1 means that planet will quick enough to radiates the energy it receiving from the sun. From this statement it is understood that planet always balancing the inflow and out flow of radiation and maintaing the temperature. The greater the reflectivity near to 1 the higher the balance of inflow ans out flow of radiation. Finally it is colder/ warmer depends on the distance from the sun
(b) If the surface area increases the quanity it re-radiates increases and temperature of the earth will be decreased
13. The four process that shape the planetary surfaces are given below:
