Smoke is usually the result of a combustion process that releases heat. This heat warms the air containing the smoke and as warm air is lighter (less dense) than cold air, the air and smoke rises.
Smoke rises in the air due to the difference in temperature between the smoke and the surrounding air. When materials are burned, the heat causes the air inside the smoke to expand, making it less dense and causing it to rise. This process creates air currents that carry the smoke upwards.
If the pollution in the air is cigarette smoke you can develope lung cancer. Second hand smoke is dangerous.
Smoke particles move in air due to air currents, also known as convection. The warm air rises, taking the smoke particles along with it. Once the warm air cools down, the smoke particles disperse throughout the surrounding air.
Smoke has a harmful effect on the ozone layer and the environment. Do Not Smoke.
by convection
The same as first hand smoke. The smoke is in the air, you breathe the air, you're inhaling smoke. Just like the oxygen goes to your cells, certain properties of the smoke go with it.
Smoke rises quickly because it is less dense than the surrounding air. As the smoke is heated, it becomes lighter and more buoyant, causing it to move upward due to the difference in densities between the smoke and the surrounding air. This creates a thermal draft that propels the smoke upwards.
Smoke travels upward due to differences in temperature and density between the smoke particles and the surrounding air. As the smoke is hotter and less dense than the surrounding air, it rises. This movement is also influenced by the natural convection process, where the hotter air at the bottom of the smoke column rises as it cools and disperses at the top.
Yes, cigarette smoke is considered a form of air pollution because it releases harmful chemicals and particulate matter into the air when it is emitted. These pollutants can have negative effects on human health and the environment.
My guess is that it's because smoke is hot. Hot air rises, just as cold air sinks. When a fire ensues, smoke (the product of carbon combustion) rises with the hot air.
