Do cold air have more precipitation than hot air?
Cold air generally has contains less humidity than warm air.
Which is heavier hot air or cold?
Hot air. Because it always rises above cold
Can hot air hold more or less water than cold air?
Hot air can hold much more water because they are compacted and not spaced out.
Is warm air dense?
No, warm air is lighter than cold air because hot air rises and cold air stays in the same place.
Why is hot air heavier than cold air?
Heat itself is a form of energy. This gives the air molecules more kinetic energy. Thus, with more kinetic energy, the air molecules move a lot more. Adversely, in cold air, there is less energy, thus the air molecules move less slowly. This is what gives hot air more volume than cold air. (Yeah I know I used more commas than I should've.)
Does hot air seek cold air?
No. There is no force of attraction between warm and cold air.
If you want to force more air hot or cold into certain rooms of your home does it help to close vents where air is less needed?
yes!!
Why does heat rise and how does cold drop?
Cold air is compact air Hot air is less dense than cold air Ergo, hot air rises ; cold air sinks
Does hot air move into cold air or does cold air move into hot air?
Both. Since hot air is less dense than cold air, the hot air rises as the cold air falls (i.e. as the cold air displaces the hot air). If you were to dye hot air & then inject it into the center of a room, you would observe the dyed hot air rising. What you may not realize is that gravity draws the (invisible) surrounding dense cold air downwards as it displaces the (visible) less dense dyed hot air. === Previous Posters Answer: Hot air rises
Which has less force hot air or cold air?
Gaseous compounds (like air) contain no force of their own, but their mass is a component of force. The force is usually created gravity or temperature conditions. I'll answer this the easy way. Fully inflate a balloon, tie off the opening, then put it in a freezer and wait 10 minutes. After this time, the size (or volume) of the balloon will be smaller, because the air inside now exerts less force on the inside of the balloon (at rest), even though the mass of the air inside the balloon did not change. Therefore, cold air has less force than hot air (of the same mass). If you switch the meaning of the question to one based on a constant volume of air (instead of a constant mass), then the answer flips around. That's because the density of cold air is higher than the density of hot air. That's why firemen tell you to crawl to escape a burning building. The hot (less dense) air rises, leaving the cooler, potentially survivable air at the floor level. Put another way, gravity "pulls" the cold air down (displaying force) below the hot air.
What are wind made of?
cold air is heavier than hot air so the cold air gos to the hot air where theirs less pressure
Why do hot air masses rise over cold air masses?
Hot air has less mass which make it less dense, thus allowing it to rise over a cold air mass.
Why does cold air have a higher density than warm air?
Yes, cold air has a higher density than hot air, and that is why hot air balloons rise, it rises above the cold air. hot air is less dense than cold air^
How does hot air rise?
Hot air rises because it is less dense than cold air.
Which is less dense cold air or cold water?
cold air because when the temperature drops hot air rises and cold air comes to ground level,cold water and hot water have the same density.
When hot and cold air meet the hot air rises to the top but which process causes the hot air to rise?
hot air rises because it is less dense than cold air..this occurs by the process of convection
What would happen if cold and warm air mix together and become medium-temperature air?
Since hot air is less dense than cold air, when hot and cold air collide, the hot air is forced to rise over the colder air.
