What else can I help you with?
The region where warm and cold air masses meet is called?
A front (or air mass), resulting in weather.
What type of front occurs when a warm air mass and a cold air mass meet but does not move?
A stationary front occurs when a warm air mass and a cold air mass meet but remain in place, leading to prolonged periods of rain or other forms of precipitation.
What will happen when the warm air mass collides with the cold air mass?
The point where these two air masses meet is called a front.If cold air advances and pushes away the warm air, it forms a cold front.When warm air advances, it rides up over the denser, cold air mass to form a warm front.If neither air mass advances, it forms a stationary front.
What is least likely to occur when a warm and cold front MEET?
Thunderstorms are least likely to occur when a warm and cold front meet because thunderstorms usually form along warm fronts where warm air is rising and condensing. When a warm front meets a cold front, the warm air may be lifted more gradually, resulting in less intense convective activity.
What is less dense warm air or cold air?
Warm air is less dense (lighter) than cold air..that is why warm air rises and cold air settles
How was air formed?
the air is formed by the help of the cold and warm,when cold and warm meet it makes air
When a warm and cold air meet which ends up on the top?
cold
A warm air mass is pushed upward because why?
Warm air is lighter than cold air. So you'll always get warm air on top of cold air when they meet.
What happens when warm air masses meet cold air masses?
A warm front forms.
What happens when a cold air masses meet a warm air masses?
The point where these two air masses meet is called a front.If cold air advances and pushes away the warm air, it forms a cold front.When warm air advances, it rides up over the denser, cold air mass to form a warm front.If neither air mass advances, it forms a stationary front.
Which type of front when cool air cold air and warm air meet?
occluded
Why does front form?
warm and cold air masses meet
What type of front may form when air cold air and warm air meet?
It depends on which air mass replaces which in the area. If a cold air mass advances and pushes a warm air mass away, the result is a cold front. When a cold air mass retreats and is replaced by a warm air mass, the result is a warm front. When the two air masses meet and neither advances, the result is a stationary front.
Why is warm air warmer than cold air?
Warm air is heated by the sun. Warm air expands and becomes less dense and then the cold air comes in and when the two meet rain and thunderstorms result.
Which type of precipitation forms when cool air cold air and warm air meet?
occluded
How do heat flow and air movement related to the formation of thunderstorms?
when warm air and cold air meet
Which type of front may form when cool air warm air and cold air meet?
occluded
