Why do land breezes generally occur during the night and early morning?

Warm air expands, so air will flow from a warm place to a cool place. During the day the land will get warm, while a body of water will stay at roughly the same temperature, since it takes longer to warm up. During the night, the land will cool until it is cooler than the water, so air will flow toward the land. In the early morning, the land stays cool for a while, so the breeze continues. As the land warms up and becomes warmer than the sea, the air will flow away from the land. This breeze will usually occur from the middle of the day until after sunset.


What happens in a sea breeze and land breeze?

Yes, I think I know. A sea breeze comes from the west,bringing moisture in from the sea. A land breeze (I call it a "lee" breeze) comes from the east,TAKING AWAY moisture (dessicating/drying) and pumping it BACK INTO the sea. Breezes from the east,are also sometimes called "zephyrs".


Is most likely to occur in an air mass resting on warmer ground?

relative humidity increases.


How hot is a tornado?

80 degrees is the average temperature when a tornado takes place.


What happens during a sea breeze?

As the specific heat capacity of water is higher than land, at the day time the land heats faster and thus temperature rises quickly it causes low air pressure at land ( as T is inversely propotional to pressure) but at sea the air pressure remains same so air blow from sea to land. At night land cool faster and inverse takes place

When convection takes place in the matle why does cooler material sink while warmer material rises?

Cooler material (magma) shrinks and becomes more dense. Gravity acts on this denser material more strongly because of its greater unit mass (density = Mass/volume). Lighter material rises as the heavier material displaces it below. This produces a the apparent bouyant force.


What is the use of oil warmer?

An oil warmer takes the place of incense and candles. It is used to heat up an oil with some type of fragrance. The fragrance fills a room and freshens the smell of the air.


How does radiation convection and conduction effect land breezes?

The air is in direct contact with the heated earth (conduction). Heat rises and is replaced by cool air, and that is when we feel a breeze (convection). The heat rising in waves is also known as radiation.


Why are summers a bit cooler and winters a bit warmer in japan and the koreas then in other places?

Because Japan and Korea are by the sea and the sea stores heat from summer (thus making summer colder as the ocean takes heat from the land) and releases heat in winter (thus making winter warmer)


Why does the gulf of Mexico stay cooler than the land during summer?

It stays cooler because it is soo deep so it will take a while to warm up which means that the gulf is warmer than the land during the winter. In short it takes all winter to cool all summer to warm.


Is the dark area of the sun cooler than the surrounding gases?

Yes, the dark area of sun is cooler than surrounding gases as no fusion takes place over there thus limiting the emission of energy


What kind of energy transfer takes place when your coffee gets cold?

Heat from the coffee goes to the surroundings. The coffee gets colder, the surroundings get warmer.


Is breeze matter?

Yes, breeze is matter. The characteristics of matter are that they occupies space and has mass. Breeze is basically moving air and since air is matter( it takes up space and has mass), breeze is therefore matter as well. Hope this helps!


Why is it cooler in the mountains and warmer in the city?

ANSWER:Its not my fault, its asphalt. Its called the concrete effect. The more an area is paved or covered in cement, it retains the dialy absorption of sunlight and it takes longer for this heat to dissapate. Buildings help in this as well. It retains the heat and takes longer to cool off after the daily sunlight.


What kind of gas does a Chrysler breeze takes?

Chrysler says 87-octane fuel is fine for the breeze, but premium can be used to increase +5hp, but not needed.
