When air rises fom the ground it always compresses and warms?
false
What happen when air warm up?
Typically it rises, but if a very large layer of cold air is above it it may get trapped, resulting in an inversion.
What happens as the sun's heat warms the earth's surface?
The heat rises in the form of infrared radiation, which is easily captured by the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.
Do the oceans release solar radiation?
Yes, solar radiation warms the surface of the ocean. Warmth rises from the ocean in the form of infrared radiation.
What is thermal in flight?
Sunlight heats the ground, this warms the air which expands to reduced density, rises and creates a rising wind which fills your sails or lifts your wings
What happens after hot air warms the particles in a balloon?
it rises
What happen if the world warms up?
global warming
When air rises fom the ground it always compresses and warms?
false
It's rising as the world warms up?
Sea level
Why will wind always be around?
Wind is always around because the sun is always around . A breeze / wind is created when the sun warms up the air. When the air is warmed up, it quickly rises up because heat rises up. As soon as it rises up, the cold air rushes in to take its place and that rush of cool air is wind.
What warms the atmosphere?
Mostly the sun. The sun's heat warms the earth. This heat, in the form of infra-red energy rises into the atmosphere where it is trapped by greenhouse gases. This greenhouse effect warms the atmosphere.
What forms wind power?
A convection current. The sun warms the ground/sea, this warms the air, the hot air rises, and cold air rushes in to take its place.
What causes the warm moist air to rise?
At the equator, intense sunlight warms the air and causes evaporation of water from the ocean. As the air heats up, it expands and rises.
What happen when air warm up?
Typically it rises, but if a very large layer of cold air is above it it may get trapped, resulting in an inversion.
When does fog clear?
Fog rises when sunlight warms the air enough to bring up the temperature of air and fog cloud. Sun also lowers the condensation saturation. The fog does not clear, but the entire fog-cloud rises and goes on to just be a cloud in the sky.
How does sea breezes work?
During the day the land heats up due to the sun. This warms the air over the land. The air rises, as it is now lighter. As the air over the land rises, cooler air over the sea, rushes in to take it's place.
What causes warm air to rise?
When the sun warms the earth, the warmed earth emits infrared radiation. Some of this is captured by greenhouse gases in the atmosphere which then warms up. The more greenhouse gases there are, the warmer it gets. And that is how global warming works.
