ProfessorThe troposphere is the layer of Earth's atmosphere closest to the surface, where most weather events occur. It contains about 75% of the atmosphere's mass and almost all of its water vapor. Temperature decreases with altitude in the troposphere, creating the conditions for weather and cloud formation.

Which is the lowest layer of the atmosphere?
The lowest layer of the atmosphere is the troposphere. This is where weather events occur, and it extends from the Earth's surface up to about 10-15 kilometers, depending on your location.
Is the troposphere hot or cold?
The troposphere is typically colder as you go higher in altitude. On average, the temperature decreases by about 6.5°C for every kilometer increase in altitude within the troposphere.
Which layer of the atmosphere has the most air?
The troposphere is the layer of the atmosphere that contains the most air, as it is the lowest layer where most weather phenomena occur and a majority of Earth's atmospheric gases are concentrated.
How fast does a space shuttle go in the troposphere?
well there here are the layer in order: troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere. the troposphere is about sixteen kilometers above sea level, so im guessing in about 2.5 seconds.
What is the temp and altitude of the troposphere?
The troposphere ends at 16 km above the earths surface and ranges from 20 to -60 *C
