What are currents that can keep coastal regions cooler than the inland climates year around called?

the answer is cold currents because the wind of surface currents bring in cold water plus air into the region


The evaporative air cooler is an alternative to what other kind of cooler?

The evaporative air cooler is an alternative to conventional central air conditioning. An evaporative air cooling system is more economical to operate than a conventional central air conditioning unit.


In which direction is the wind blowing on a sunny day at the seashore and why?

The wind is blowing inland. This is because the sun heats the land and thus the air above it. Since the warmer air is less dense it rises. The water does not heat up as rapidly an remains cooler, and will thus tend to sink. As a result, sinking air from over the water moves inland to take the place of air that has risen.


Why the high land is colder than the low one?

Cooler air is lighter and rises to the top, while warmer air is heavier and sinks to the bottom. There is actually a cycle of heating and cooling of the air, which causes wind. Te longer the cooler air is of higher altitude, the warmer it is going to get; this is also true of the warmer air, but vise versa. The warmer air gets cooler and starts to rise while the cooler air gets warmer and starts to sink.


Why does a can of pressurized air cleaning gas become cooler as it is used?

Good question. It is a minature heat pump. When the pressurized air is vented out of the can, it expands it contuinously removes a small portion of heat that is stored in the can. This will make the can cooler than the surrounding air.

Why is the weather usually milder along an ocean coastline than the weather farther inland?

the weather is usually cooler near the coast because of the ocean. the ocean air is cooler than farther inland.

What is true awarm is less dense than cooler air bwarm air is as dense as cooler air cwarm air has no density dwarm air denser than cool air?

Warm air is less dense than cooler air.


When you live near the ocean are summers cooler and winters warmer?

Yes the proximity of the Ocean, which changes temperature very little (as compared to land) between summer and winter, means that the air coming off the ocean remains at a lower temperature than inland air during the summer and warmer than inland air during the winter.


How does differential heating create a sea breeze?

The land heats up faster than the ocean. The air over the ocean is cooler and denser. The air over the shore is warmer and less dense. The cooler air moves to the warmer air an pushes the warmer air upwards. Cool flowing air is wind.


How do you think the density of heated air compares to the density of cooler air?

The density of heated air is less than the density of cooler air.


Is Hydrogen cooler than Air?

Hydrogen is lighter than air. As to the temperature it depends on where the heat source is, hydrogen can either be warmer, cooler or the same temperature as air

the answer is cold currents because the wind of surface currents bring in cold water plus air into the region


Why are the beaches that are located on the southern shore of long island often considerably cooler than nearby inland locations on hot summer afternoons?

a see breeze develops due to the higher specific heat of water and the lower specific heat of the land. the reason it's because beaches that are located on the southern shore of long island often are considerably cooler than nearby inland location because a sea breeze develops.during the day,the sand at the beach heats faster than the water because the sand has a lower specific heat than the water...the warm air over the beach expands and becomes less dense.cooler denser air from over the water moves from the water to the land cooling the beach area.the sea breeze does not usually reach the interior areas of long island.as a result people go to the beach on summer afternoons to cool off.


Why do hot air raise?

Because it is lighter than cooler air.


Why do hot air balloons rise with hot air?

Hot air is less dense than cooler air, therefore the balloon will rise (float) on the cooler air around it.
