When warm air rises cold air will what?
The cold air will sink.
Warm air rises at the equator and cold air sinks at the poles creating?
Warm air rises at the equator and cold air sinks at the poles. Warm air expands and cool air contracts and compresses.
How does frontal occur?
Warm air rises quicklier then cold air. When those two meet, the warmer and lighter air rises OVER the colder and heavier air. If the warm air rises the warm air coolsdown when it's very high, and then the warm air forms clouds. A front is the place where cold and warm air meets. Along fronts in Europe, there are found a lot of rain and clouds most of the time.
When warm air approaches a large body of cold air what happens to the warm air?
The warm air rises
When a cold front manages to take over a warm front it is called?
climate change
Does wind move from a warm place to a cool place?
Warm air rises over cold air when a warm and cold front connect.
What is the transfer of heat when warm material rises and cold sinks?
This is called convection.
What happens to a cold air when a warm air moves into a region?
the warm air rises up and moves over the cold air that is already there.
A mass of warm air rises when it collides with a mass of cold air What is this process called?
Frontal wedging
What does warm air do?
Warm air rises,and then sinks when the air is cold.
Why does a cold air mass always sink below a warm air mass?
Because warm air has more energy and rises, so slides over the cold air.
When warm air rises cold air will what?
The cold air will sink.
What happens when a warm front moves into a cold front?
warm front rises on top of the cold front.
Is the warm front always on top of the cold front when an occluded front is formed?
Yes, because the warm air is always less dense, so it rises over the cold front.
Warm air rises at the equator and cold air sinks at the poles creating?
Warm air rises at the equator and cold air sinks at the poles. Warm air expands and cool air contracts and compresses.
Explain what the difference between warm and cold air with regards to movement Why does this happen?
Warm air rises and cold air sinks. This is called convection and happens because warm air is less dense and lighter.
When a warm air mass and a cold air mass stall to each other what is that called?
A stationery front. A cold front is where cold air gains over warm air. Warm front is where warm air gains over cold air. An Occluded front is where warm air is pushed up and cold aair over takes at lower levels.
