What were the two factors that caused differences in wind speed?
There are two factors that cause differences in wind speed. They are differences in pressure and differences in altitude.
What currents are currents caused by temperature differences the water?
ocean currents are caused by difference in temperatures and salinity lol :) :P hehe
What is A complete circle of moving liquid or gas caused by temperature differences?
Its called CONVECTION or CONVECTION CELL some times
Strong winds are primarily caused by?
The air pressure differences result mostly from the uneven heating of earth's surface.
Would there still be winds if the earth's surface where the same temperature everywhere?
These 2 sentences will help answer your question: Differences in air pressure are generally caused by the unequal heating of the earth. The definition of wind is the movement of air caused by differences in air pressure. Therefore, no, there would not be wind.
What high altitude winds caused by temperatures differences between air masses?
global winds
What were the two factors that caused differences in wind speed?
There are two factors that cause differences in wind speed. They are differences in pressure and differences in altitude.
Does heat is NOT related to temperature differences?
Heat is the amount of energy transferred between objects where a difference in temperature is present. So in that sense, heat is related to temperature differences, but is not the same. The temperature difference is caused by the difference in the avg. speed of particles between the two objects.
Air curents caused by temperature differences?
Yes, air currents are caused by temperature differences. The temperature differences occur vertically and horizontally and causes air currents and weather.
How the energy in waves originally came from the Sun?
The energy from waves is usually caused by the wind; the wind is caused by temperature differences among different parts of Earth; and these temperature differences are caused by the sunlight.
