Are cold air masses lighter the warm air masses or the same?
cold fronts are heavier than warm fronts
Why does cold gases and liquids sink?
Hot air is less dense than the surrounding air and therefore it rises. Cold air, on the other hand, is the opposite. It is more dense than surrounding air and sinks.
Why does cold air push warm air?
Because cold air is more dense, and also contains less water vapour.
Is breath heavier than air?
No, water is heavier than air.
Is Nitrous Oxide lighter or heavier than air?
Nitrous Oxide is heavier than air.
Is cold air heavier than warm air?
False because warm air rises. The particles in cold air are moving more slowly and make cold air more dense than warm air.
What kind of air is heavier than another type of air?
Gas is heavier than oxygen. Cold air is heavir than hot air
Is Warm air heavier or cold air?
cold air is heavier than the warm air warm air has low water so it is hot and low heavy but cold air has a lot of water so it cold and heavy
What is heavier cold or warm air?
Cold air is heavier
How would you compare the density of cold air to warm air?
Cold air is heavier than warm air.
What is heavier 1 liter of air or 1 liter of water?
Water because a liter is a measurement of space and not mass. Water occupying 1 liter of space is lots heavier than air occupying 1 liter of space. <><><><><> It depends on density. It is possible, given enough pressure, to have one liter of air weigh more than one liter of water.
If cold air is heavier than warm air then why is it colder in the mountains?
You have forgotten one vital fact, cold air is heavier than hot air------At the same atmospheric pressure!!. That means that the cold air on Mt Everest is lighter than than the warm air 29000 ft below in the Ganges Delta.
What is the difference in density between warm and cold air?
The density between cold and warm air is, cold air is heavier than warm air.
If there is a liter of air and a liter of water which is heavier?
Water
Warm air weighs more than cold air?
no cold air is heavier because it sinks and hot air rises
Does cold air have high or low pressure?
Cold air typically has higher pressure than warm air because cold air is denser and therefore exerts more pressure on its surroundings.
Are cold air masses lighter the warm air masses or the same?
cold fronts are heavier than warm fronts
