- 1759: that not only the production of a rational Being was concern'd in it, but that possibly the happy foundation and temperature of his body, perhaps his genius and the very cast of his mind ? Laurence Sterne, The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman (Penguin 2003, p.5)
- A measure of cold or hot. A thermometer can usually be used to determine its value.

What causes the temperature Starting from sea level
increasing in altitude. The
troposphere decreases with
temperature, the statosphere
increases with temperature,
the mesosphere decreases with
temperature, the thermosphere
increases with temperature and
then finally the exosphere
decreases with temperature.
Of each of the five layers,
what causes the variance in
temperature in increase of
height?
The weather cannot be the
answer, becuase the weather is
involved in the troposphere,
this why you rarely see clouds
at 39,000ft on your flight,
the temperature at this
altitude is constant in all
parts of the world.
Aircraft at these altitudes
are above the weather, this is
why you never fly through rain
at these types of cruising
altitudes.

It depends on where the heat source is for that particular layer. The troposphere is heated from below, mainly by the earth's surface. Convective processes occur here, and adiabatic expansion of rising air (and air that has already risen) causes temperature to decrease with height. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T roposphere The stratosphere is heated from above (absorbtion of ultraviolet radiation in the ozone layer). Convection processes can't occur here; the lower stratosphere is warmed via the conduction of the heat from above. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S tratosphere The mesosphere is heated from below (the ozone layer again). Convective processes probably occur here like they do in the troposphere. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M esosphere The thermosphere is heated from above, as the small amount of residual oxygen absorbs highly energetic solar radiation. Conduction would be the primary heat transport mechanism here, similar to what happens in the stratosphere. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T hermosphere The exosphere is likely heated from below (the residual oxygen absorbing solar radiation again). Again, similar processes probably happen here like they do in the troposphere and mesosphere. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E xosphere |

What temperature to keep I am leaving for a vacation
and do not know what
temperature to leave my
Jacuzzi in while gone. It's in
Tahoe (Nevada) where it's cold
anyway and I do not want to
waste too much energy nor to
have it freezing when I come
back. I do not know what
temperature to leave it in.
I am not sure how long the
vacation will be. Maybe about
two weeks or a month,
something like that.

I would turn it off entirely. There is no way it will freeze at this time of year. I'd bet it will still be above 50 degrees when you return a month from now. The temperature in the daytime in Tahoe averages above 50 degrees this time of year. It doesn't get cold enough at night to freeze an insulated body of water such as your hot tub. Bon voyage. |

what is the freezing and
boiling point? and how do you
measure the temperature in
farenheit and celcious?
Name: innocent
need to know if the temperature is 20 degrees celcuis what does it imply hot or cold, what is the maximum temperature to be expected?
* Indicates a required fieldAdd your knowledge or ask a question:
What is an easy to understand and easy way to remember the defintion of temperature? I am supposed to do a science fair project report on temperature and states of matter but I don't know where to start.
