This is ultimately the result of temperature differences; the energy comes from sunlight. Note that air masses need to travel in BOTH directions, since the air can't just accumulate in one place.
I believe this is correct: Theoretically, the axis is infinitely long, extending into space toward the north from the north pole, and toward the south from the south pole. When you reach the north pole, that is not the farthest north that you can travel; if you are able to go up, you will continue going north.
He did not travel.
travel brochure is like a map for tourists
earthworms travel faster
well it depends on the assignment if u have to travel to shoot a movie then yeah you would have to travel to be part of the movie
Air masses tend to travel from polar regions toward the equator due to the Earth's rotation and differences in temperature and pressure. The uneven heating of the Earth's surface causes warmer air to rise at the equator, creating low pressure, while cooler air in polar regions leads to high pressure. This pressure difference drives the movement of air masses in a process known as atmospheric circulation. Additionally, the Coriolis effect influences their paths, causing them to curve rather than move in a straight line.
The equator faces the sun more directly than the polar regions do, and therefore gets more sunlight and more resulting heat.
Air masses of different pressures and temperature move around the Earth. The cold air masses that form at the poles move toward the equator, while the warm air masses that form at the equator move toward the poles.
North of course! There is no other way to travel.
Heating by the sun near the equator makes the water there warm. In the polar regions, the water is cold. Cold water weighs more than warm and as a result, the warm waters of the equator drift toward the poles. The cold wear from the poles then flows toward the equator to replace the warm water that is leaving.
A cold air mass originates over water or land that is colder than the air temperature at the time. Cold air masses usually originate in the northwest and travel eastward. A warm air mass is formed from warm water or ground temperature that is warmer than the air at the time. Warm air masses usually originate in the southwest and travel east or northeast.
You would need to travel toward the south to reach the equator. Because Dallas is in the Northern Hemisphere not the southern hemisphere. BTW the Northern Hemisphere is the upper half of the earth. The Southern Hemisphere is the lower part of the earth.
Warm air moves towards higher latitudes towards the poles, while cold air moves towards lower latitudes towards the equator. This movement is driven by the temperature and pressure differences between these regions.
6th Graders QuestionsSimple Answer: The areas near the equator heat up more than other regions because Sun's rays strike Earth at a higher angle near the equator than the North Pole, South Pole, and other more regions.By: Rocio Rodriguez, 6th grader.
it is a large air mass that passes over oceans
to get from Elgin to the equator you would travel.
Yes, typically biodiversity increases as you move closer to the equator. This is due to the warmer temperatures and more stable climate creating a wider range of habitats, allowing for a greater variety of species to thrive in tropical regions.
