because their monocles separate causing less density per cubic inch.

How will you make the refrigerated water less dense?
The density of materials depends on the temperature.
How does the color of dense materials change with temperature?
The force of gravity affects nearby light, causing a change in temperature.
What causes air to become more dense?
the lower the temperature gets the more dense the air becomes.
Does mantle material rise in convection currents because heated materials become more dense?
no
What happens to an object when its thermal energy is increased?
its molecules become less dense and begin to vibrate and bounce more
Is it true molten material in the asthenosphere rises in convection currents because heated materials become more dense?
Actually, hot, less dense material rises, and cold, denser material sinks. Denser material will be heavier (per unit volume) and gravity therefore pulls it down. Less dense material has buoyancy and rises. It's very logical.
Statement correctly describes how the density and temperature of air are related?
Lower temperature air is more dense.
Why does hot molten rock rise up when superhot?
Density is the key. Think of a hot air balloon. Because hot air is less dense than cool air it rises above it, causeing the air balloon to rise. In science, materials that are a hotter temperature are less dense than materials that are cooler in temperature. The molten rock being hotter is less dense and rises about the cool, solid rock.
How does convection cause an increase in temperature?
it occurs because most liquids and gases become less dense when heated
Which 2 materials are the most dense?
the most dense is steel and aluminium.
What materials are the least dense?
Gas
Do plates become more dense or less dense when they become cooler?
Cooler material is more dense and hotter material is less. This means that plates become more dense as they cool.
