What are air falls?
air falls down to fall
What describes what happens at the poles?
Cold air is sinking and flowing back toward the equator.
how do objects fall when there is no air resistance?
In the absence of air resistance (friction) objects will fall at the same speed. Hope this still helps :)
Results for quarters and feathers fall at the same speed?
Quarters and feathers would only fall at the same speed in a vacuum. In air, the quarter would fall faster, as it has less air resistance.
What is the type of friction that occurs when objects fall through the air?
Air resistance is.
Where does cold air from the poles go?
At the poles, cold air sinks. Simple
Which direction does the air currents towards the poles or away from the poles?
Away from the poles because the air near Earths surface is warm.
Why is High Pressure Is At The Poles?
it is because air sinks at the poles
How does air travel at the poles?
The cold dense air at the poles sinks, so the air from the upper level of atmosphere flows in on the top of the increasing weight while creating an area of high pressure at the poles. Now, the air that rises at the equator does not flow directly to the poles.
When an air mass forms near the poles it has warm air?
When an air mass forms near the poles it has warm air. This will be a large body of air which will have homogeneous moisture.
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 do you make the elevated paths lose their poles in zoo tycoon 2?
You can't. The poles are part of the path and hold it up. If there are no poles, the path would fall down, so there has to be poles. Sorry.
What are the pressure conditions of the air above poles?
Generally the poles are cold places, receiving Sunlight at a low angle or no Sun at all. This means the air above the poles tends to be cooler than the rest of the planet. Cold air is dense so the pressure of the air at the poles tends to be higher than the rest of the planet. Thus air (cold air) tends to flow away from the polar regions along the Earth's surface to be replaced by light warmer air flowing into the poles at a higher level (this air then cools). There is therefore a general flow of warm air north and south towards the poles from the equator and a flow of cold air from the poles towards the equator. This flow of air spreads out the heat from the Sun, warming the poles and cooling the tropics. In detail this overall flow is restricted by the thickness of Earth's atmosphere and several flow cells form to complete the chain causing Earth's climatic zones.
Does snow fall near the poles?
Well, yes. The North and South poles are furthest away from the equator and thus, the coldest
Does warm air rise to the poles?
yes
The air above the poles is?
cold and sinking
What effect do global winds have on climate?
Global winds drive heated air from the equator to the poles. It also drives colder air from the poles to the equator.
