How do air masses interact to form a hurricane?
A cyclone rotates faster and faster as pressure differences between areas of low and high pressure increase.
What type of front moves the fastest?
A cold front moves the fastest, and a stationary front moves the slowest. A cold front moves about 20 mph, while a stationary front moves very little.
What type of front moves the slowest?
Warm front
What causes air mass to move?
The temperature and density of the air masses. the air masses moves when hot air and cold air gets together
What are the four types of fronts?
Cold Front-When a fast moving cold air mass runs into a slowly moving warm air mass Warm Front-A fast moving warm air mass collides with a slow moving cold air mass Stationary Front-When a cold and a warm air mass meet, but neither one has enough force to move the other Occluded Front-When a warm air was is caught between two cold air masses
What kind of weather happens when warm and cold air masses meet but neither one moves?
fog
Are masses the same as fronts?
No. An air mass is a large mass of air with given characteristics of temperature and humidity that distinguish it from surrounding air masses. A front is the boundary between two air masses. For example, a cold front marks were a cold air mass moves in and pushes a warmer one out of the way.
How does the atmosphere circulate as air masses?
The atmosphere moves in masses. When two masses collide they are called fronts. When a cold air mass goes into the land occupied by a warm mass it makes a cold front. The opposite makes a warm mass.
What will happend to the temperature once an occluded front moves through?
The cold air mass from the cold front meets the cool air that was ahead of the warm front. The warm air rises as these air masses come together.
How are cold fronts and warm fronts alike and how are they different?
They are both boundaries of differing air masses.

What moves the air masses in the us?
Continental polar
What moving air masses cause?
The temperature and density of the air masses. the air masses moves when hot air and cold air gets together
Is it true the border between 2 air masses may be either cold or warm fronts?
Yes. If a warm air mass moves into a cold air mass it creates a warm front. When the opposite happens it forms a cold front.
When was She Moves On created?
She Moves On was created in 1990.
Which front moves through an area faster a cold front or a warm front?
a warm front moves faster then a cold front because it is less dense
