What causes the warm air ahead of a cold front to rise?
Cold air is more dense than warm air. If flows beneath the warm air and forces it to rise.When air warms up, it expands a little, and so it becomes less dense. Density is the ratio of mass to volume. Within a fixed volume, there will be less mass (less air) in a sample of warmer air than there will be in a sample of cooler air. The less dense air floats above the cooler air. This is why hot air balloons will rise.
When warm air approaches cold air what does the cold air do?
the cold air pushes the warm air up and forms cumulus clouds
How can an ectotherm warm up in the cold?
because of its external environment
Why would you expect thunderstorms when cold air mass runs into warm air mass?
Cold air has little moisture, warm air has lots. When cold air runs into warm air then the warm air is pushed up until the moisture in the air gets cold enough to form rain
What front is it called when a cold air mass catches up to a warm air mass?
When a cold air mass catches up to a warm air mass, it is called a cold front. At a cold front, the cold air replaces the warm air, creating a boundary between the two air masses. This can result in the formation of clouds, precipitation, and potentially severe weather.
Why are thunderstorms often assocciated with the arrival of a moving cold front?
The warm air mass carries warm moist air. The cold front brings cold, dense air. Because this cold air is denser, as it ploughs through the warm moist air it forces it upwards. This warm moist air being pushed up at speed is what causes cumulonimbus clouds to form along the cold front, and hence thunderstorms.

You can warm up a cold pool buy buying a pool heater

Is cold or warm air better for your body?
warm. because cold air causes ur muscles to contrast and it also doesnt take as long to warm up in warm as it would in cold
When a warm and cold air meet which ends up on the top?
cold
When warm air approaches cold air what does the cold air do?
the cold air pushes the warm air up and forms cumulus clouds
How do you warm up cold rolls?
In the microwave.
When a cold air mass catches up to a warm air mass its called a what?
When a cold FRONT catches up to a warm FRONT it is called an occluded front.When a cold AIR MASS displaces a warmer AIR MASS it is a cold front.Occluded front
How do fronts cause clouds and precipitation?
Fronts help us predict weather because cold fronts bring cold weather and warm fronts bring warmer weather. Cold fronts might bring short but heavy showers, or even severe weather like tornadoes. Warm fronts make the sky fill with thicker, lower clouds, and there can be a light rain that last for hours or days.
What will happen when the warm air mass collides with the cold air mass?
The point where these two air masses meet is called a front.If cold air advances and pushes away the warm air, it forms a cold front.When warm air advances, it rides up over the denser, cold air mass to form a warm front.If neither air mass advances, it forms a stationary front.
What happens to your body when you get cold?
I will come and warm you up
How do you warm up a cold cat?
Heating pad
