A sweating cup is colder than the air which surrounds it.


What temperature of air is heavier and has more pressure?

Colder air is typically heavier and denser than warmer air, leading to higher air pressure at the surface. This is because cold air molecules are closer together and exert more force per unit area, creating higher pressure.


What is heavier in warmer weather than in winter?

Air is heavier in warmer weather than in winter. This is because warm air is less dense than cold air, causing it to weigh more in the same volume compared to cold air.

If a test tube is full of water at 20 digrese in time would the water continue to get colder?

The future temperature of the water depends upon the surrounding air's temperature. So if the air around the test tube is colder than 20 degrees, then the water will get colder. If the air temperature is warmer than 20 degrees then the water will get warmer.


What process of energy exchange causes cold air to displace warmer air?

Cold air is denser than warm air, so it sinks below the warm air, displacing it upwards. This process is called convection, where the warmer air expands and rises as the colder air contracts and sinks.
