What else can I help you with?
What is A cycle in which air is warmed warm air rises air cooled and cooled air sinks in a what?
This describes what happens in a convection cycle.
Which step is not a part of a normal convection cycle?
warmed air sinks, creating a high-pressure area as it falls.
What is a cycle in which air is warmed and warm air rises and air is cooled and cooled air sinks?
The process you are describing is known as convection. This cycle occurs when a fluid, in this case, air, is heated, causing it to expand and rise due to lower density. As the air rises, it cools, becomes denser, and eventually sinks back down to be reheated, thus continuing the convection cycle.
Which step is not part of a normal convection cycle apex?
Warmed air sinks, creating a high-pressure area as it falls. ^ Not Quite Warmed air rises, creating a high-pressure system below
What kind of currents are cause by temperature differences in the water?
The differing densities of water create a consistent movement between the various thermal layers. As water is cooled, it actually expands, so it rises, and as it is warmed it sinks.
How do differences in density cause currents to flow both in the surface waters of the oceans and in the bottom waters of the ocean?
The differing densities of water create a consistent movement between the various thermal layers. As water is cooled, it actually expands, so it rises, and as it is warmed it sinks.
What caused the plates to move?
The intense heat in the Earth's core causes molten rock in Earth's mantle to shift. That causes a pattern called a convection cell which forms when material rises, cools, and sinks. When the material sinks, it is warmed and rises again.
What causes the earth plate to move?
The intense heat in the Earth's core causes molten rock in Earth's mantle to shift. That causes a pattern called a convection cell which forms when material rises, cools, and sinks. When the material sinks, it is warmed and rises again.
What are the steps of a normal convection cycle?
In a normal convection cycle, warm air rises due to being less dense, cools down as it reaches higher altitude, becomes denser and sinks back down, and then gets warmed up again by the heat source, completing the cycle. This continual movement of air creates a convection current.
Does heated magma rise or sink?
When magma is being heated it rises. When it is cooled, it sinks.
When air rises what else does do?
sinks.
Why does flames of a fire rise even though gravity pulls things downwards?
Because the warm particles/air from the fire are lighter than the cold air around it. The warm air, being lighter, rises, and the cold, heavy air sinks. Cold air is pulled into the bottom of the fire, warmed and continues the cycle.
