clouds associated with the lifting of unstable air are towering and often generate thunderstorms and occasionally even a tornado.

What happens to the warm air when it overtakes the cold air?
the warm air will rise
If an unstable air mass is forced upwards what type clouds can be expected?
Clouds with considerable vertical development and associated turbulence.
Why does hydrogen rise in air?
this happens because hydrogen is lighter than air
What is a front that forms when a warm air mass is trapped between cold air masses and is forced to rise?
Occluded front
What occurs when a mass of cold air moves into a mass of warm air?
What happens is similar to when a warm air mass meets a cold air mass: the Cold Air Mass is forced to Subside beneath the Warm Air Mass. Thusly the warm air is uplifted, it cools and Rain is formed. When a Warm Air Mass meets a Cold Air Mass, the warm air is [again] forced to Rise above the Cold Air Mass, it cools and Rain is formed.
When stable air is forced to rise are storms expected?
No when stable air is lifted and there is enough moisture, you can see the formation of clouds and possible showers. Thunderstorms develop when unstable air is lifted.
What happens to the warm air when it overtakes the cold air?
the warm air will rise
What is the difference between unstable and stable air?
. Unstable air, if lifted, will rise by itself without any forcing. Stable air, if lifted, will tend to sink back down.,
What does stability mean in terms of air?
stable air tends to remain in its original position, while unstable air tends to rise.
What does Stability mean of air terms?
stable air tends to remain in its original position, while unstable air tends to rise.
What happens to air pressure as you rise?
It decreases!!
What makes the atmosphere unstable?
IT is unstable because it is heated from the surface. Warm air likes to rise, and since the warm air is at the surface, it will always be moving up displacing colder air. This makes the atmosphere stable, conducive to weather.
What happens when a person inhales?
Air is forced into the lungs.
Precipitation caused by air being forced to rise over high land?
condensation, warm air
What happens when carbonic acid is unstable?
Basically the CO2 releases into the air and water is left. Its unstable because CO2 is a gas at room temp.
If an unstable air mass is forced upwards what type clouds can be expected?
Clouds with considerable vertical development and associated turbulence.
Why does hydrogen rise in air?
this happens because hydrogen is lighter than air
