What zone does the warm are rise and cool and the cool air sinks?
Warm air molecules are fast moving and therefore less dense than cold air molecules. Since cold air is more dense (more slowly moving) it sinks.
Which air mass is the least dense?
Warm air is less dense than cool air masses because of their density levels.
Which is normally more dense dry air or humid air?
Humid air is more dense.
Is lead more dense than air?
Lead is more dense than air.
Does cool air sink while warm air rises?
yes the cool denser air sink while the warm less dense rises
Is cool air dense?
No it is more dense than hot air
Is cool air less dense?
No it is more dense than hot air
Does warm air or cool air have greater air preassure?
Cool air, it is more dense.
Why is cool and dry air often called a high?
It is called a "high pressure region". Air that is cool, is dense. Air that has less moisture is more dense than air with more moisture.
Does dense air move from hot air to cool air?
No. Dense air is cool air.
What zone does the warm are rise and cool and the cool air sinks?
Warm air molecules are fast moving and therefore less dense than cold air molecules. Since cold air is more dense (more slowly moving) it sinks.
What is true A warm air is less dense than cool air B warm air is as dense as cool air. C warm air has no density. D warm air is denser than cool air?
Warm air is less dense than cool air.
Why the air temperature near the ceiling of the room tends to be warmer than near the floor?
Because warm air rises over cool air. Warm air is less dense than cool air, and it's lifted by buoyancy and floats on the more dense cool air.
How does air density affect convection in the atmosphere?
Less dense (warm) air rises. More dense (cool) air sinks. The two put together are convection.
Why warm air rises?
Cold air is more dense than warm air. If flows beneath the warm air and forces it to rise.
Why does cool air sink and warm air rises?
Because warm air is less dense then cool air.
Cool air over the poles will?
Actually, cool air tends to be more dense and flow under warm air
