Why is air more buoyant than water?
Air is more buoyant than water because air is less dense than water, and everything the thing that is less dense is always more buoyant than what is more dense than it.
If the mass of a fixed volume of air increases does the density become more or less dense?
less dense
Do heated air particles become more or less dense?
Things (almost everything, including air) becomes less dense when it is heated. So warm air rises, and cold air falls.
How does a hot air balloon work?
Hot air balloons get their buoyancy from hot air created by a propane burner at the base of the balloon. Hot air is less dense than cold air and so weighs less. When the cold air that is displaced weighs more than the balloon, the balloon will rise. The balloons weight is controlled by turning the burner on and off when needed. The hot air is less dense than the outside air and so the balloon is squeezed upwards by the surrounding air. The air becomes less dense as more heat is applied, particles separate more and more when heat is applied. The more heat is applied the further apart and less dense the particles become.
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.
If the volume of air is less then the less dense or more dense the air is?
its has more pressure
Is ammonia more dense or less dense than air?
Yes ammonia is less dense than air
What will less dense air do in a relation to more dense air?
if two fluids of different density meet the less dense one will rise over the more dense one.
Is cool air less dense?
No it is more dense than hot air
Statement correctly describes how the density and temperature of air are related?
Lower temperature air is more dense.
Is higher air less or more dense?
less
Is dry ice more or less dense than air?
It is more dense.
Why is air more buoyant than water?
Air is more buoyant than water because air is less dense than water, and everything the thing that is less dense is always more buoyant than what is more dense than it.
Is the air on a hot humid day less dense or more dense than on a hot dry day?
it is less dense
When there is more space between molecules would air be more or less dense?
Air will be less denser.
What makes less dense air come from the equator?
Air becomes more or less dense relative to its temperature. Cold air is denser than warm. Since the equatorial region is tropical, the air will be warmer and less dense.
If the mass of a fixed volume of air increases does the density become more or less dense?
less dense
