I was watching the layers of rhe atnosphere in a google search and it says that there are different layers, but I really don’t understand that separates them. It is the gravity of the earth that creates such phenomenon?
In: Physics
Really, there are no “layers” in the atmosphere, not in the physical sense. There’s the ozone layer, sure, but in terms of the troposphere, stratosphere, etc, it’s a fairly smooth gradient in terms of pressure and atmospheric density — yes, caused by gravity. The names are mostly for human convenience.
