If your talking about fluid or air heat rises.
What else can I help you with?
What is the definition of warm currents?
currents that flow away
How is an ocean current considered to be warm or cold?
Warm or cold defines the temperature of the water. In general warm currents flow north and cold currents flow south. That makes sense. Also warm currents flow on the surface and cold currents flow deep since cold water is denser than warm water.
What is the warm what current?
currents that flow away
Why are warm currents warm and cold currents cold?
there are some warm currents as they flow along the earths surface while there some cold currents as they travel below the earths surface
What direction do cold currents flow in the northern hemisphere?
warm surface currents come from the polar and temperate latitudes, and they tend to flow towards the equator. Like the warm surface currents, mainly atmospheric forces drive them. Gyres form when the major ocean currents connect. Water flows in a circular pattern-clockwise in the northern hemisphere, and clockwise in the Southern hemisphere.
What determine the direction of heat flow?
Convection currents.
What are the warm currents that flow from tropical areas called?
The warm currents that flow from tropical areas are known as "warm ocean currents." These currents, such as the Gulf Stream in the Atlantic Ocean, transport warm water from the equator towards higher latitudes, influencing climate and weather patterns. They play a crucial role in regulating temperatures and supporting marine ecosystems in the regions they flow through.
Are the ocean currents in the pacific warm or cold?
Both: Tidal currents that flow from the tropics will be warm, and if they flow from the poles will be cool.
Do warm currents flow toward the equator or away?
Warm currents generally flow toward the poles from the equator. This creates a transfer of warm water from the equator to higher latitudes, helping to moderate temperatures in these regions.
Currents in the southern hemisphere flow what direction?
In the southern hemisphere, ocean currents flow clockwise due to the Coriolis effect.
What direction do surface currents near the equator?
Ocean currents flow near the equator from the east to west. Ocean currents flow near the poles from west to east.
Why do warm ocean currents cool as they flow along a coastline away from the equator?
Warm ocean currents cool as they flow along a coastline away from the equator because sand and minerals are transported by ocean currents away from the equator.
