What is the term for the land water and air on earth?
The term for the land, water, and air on Earth is the environment.
What time does sea breeze start?
Sea breeze typically starts in the late morning or early afternoon when the land has heated up more than the water, causing the air above the land to rise and pull in cooler air from over the sea.
Cool dense air moves during the night from the land toward water as?
Cool dense air moves from land toward water at night due to differences in temperature between the land and water. As the land cools more quickly than the water, the air above the land becomes denser, creating a pressure gradient that causes the air to flow from land to water. This process is known as a land breeze.
How are currents that form in heated air similar to currents that form in heated water?
Both air and water currents that form due to heating are driven by a combination of density differences and convection. As the air or water is heated, it becomes less dense and rises, causing a flow of cooler, denser fluid to move in to replace it. This sets up a continual circulation pattern as the fluid cools, sinks, gets reheated, and rises again.
Does evaporation go into the air after precipitation falls to earth?
Yes, evaporation occurs when water from precipitation on land or bodies of water is heated by the sun and turns into water vapor, which then rises into the air. This water vapor eventually forms clouds and can lead to more precipitation through the water cycle.
How does the sunlight warm the land air and water?
Land and sea are heated by absorbing radiant energy from the sun. Air is heated indirectly by being in contact (conduction) with land or water.
What is movement of air from sea to land during day when cooler air from above the the water moves over the land forcing heated less dense air above to rise is called?
Land Breeze
What transfer of energy from land or water to air by direct contact?
The transfer of energy from land or water to air by direct contact is known as convection. As the surface of the land or water gets heated by the sun, it transfers this heat energy to the air molecules in contact with it. These warm air molecules rise, creating air currents and leading to the transfer of heat from the surface to the air.
What are 4 convections?
the air being heated from a fireplace,air from a furnace,boiling water,the air being heated in a hot air balloon.
When the land gets hot it heats the air above it the heated air rises because it?
because its evaporating
What happens to air molecules when air is heated.?
the hot-air molecules bang on each other harder.
What happens to air molecules air is heated?
the hot-air molecules bang on each other harder.
Explain why large bodies of water cause local winds to shift direction from day to night?
During the day the land gets is heated fast, but the water takes a while to heat up. At night, water cools down right away, as does land, land absorbs heat faster than water and can also gets cooler faster.
How is matter heated by conduction?
it is heated when cold air meets and cools down hot air and freezes water so it turns to ice
Air moving from land to water?
At night, land cools much more rapitly than ocean water. Air over the land becomes cooler than air over the ocean. Cooler, denser air above the land moves over the water, as the water rises. Movement if the air toward the water from the land is called land breeze.
How does water go into the air?
If water is heated to a certain temperature, it evaporates. When water evaporates, it...I guess you could say..."go into the air".
