Does trapping air next to your body help you to keep warm?
Yes - because air trapped close to your body is kept warm by the heat from your skin.
What type of front forms when a warm air mass is trapped by 2 cold air masses?
Stationary Front
Front that forms when a warm air mass is trapped between cold air masses and forced to rise is called?
occluded front is what it maybe!
Will a balloon keep air longer in a warm or cold?
usually in hot or warm temperatures because, hot air expands and cold does not.
Can a cool air mass be trapped above two warmer air masses?
Yes. You can have a cooler air mass on top of a warm air mass. However, this arrangement is unstable and will naturally tend to revert itself. If the warm air mass has enough moisture, thunderstorms are likely.
How is sea otter fur adapted to keep the otter warm?
Air trapped in their fur keeps them warm

How does insulation keep a home warm?
Insulation can help keep a warm house warm or a cool house cool. It reduces the transfer of heat by conduction, so warm air stays warm, and cool air stays cool. Insulation is a material that is a poor conductor of heat, usually because of pockets of trapped air.
How is sea otter's fur adapted to keep them warm?
Air trapped in their fur keeps them warm
Why does a duvet keep you less warm if it has been flattened?
A duvet might keep you less warm if it is flattened because there will be less warm air trapped in the layers of the duvet. The temperature difference will probably not be extremely noticeable in a home with heat.
Is wool warm because it is decomposing?
No. Wool clothing keeps you warm because it has air trapped between its fibers, which acts as insulation to keep your body heat from escaping.
What occurs when warm air is trapped by two layers of cold air?
fog
Does rubber keep us warm?
Rubber is a poor conductor of heat. A suit of rubber can trap water (or air) around the skin and keep that water at the same temperature. This insulates the trapped water (or air) so that the skin feels warm. Rubber is a good insulator.
What is it called when cool air is trapped under warm air?
this is called cats
Why birds fluff out their feathers in winter?
It makes an ambient air cushion within the fluffed out feathers and helps to keep them warm. This keeps the body heat trapped in.
What is the effect on pollution when cool air becomes trapped under warm air?
more pollutants accumulate
