Cold air is than warm air?
Cold air is more dense and less buoyant than warm air.
When older sink below newer plates does it make it more dense?
Yes, when older, colder oceanic plates sink below younger, warmer plates in a process called subduction, the density of the older plate increases as it is subjected to higher pressures and temperatures in the Earth's mantle. This increase in density allows the plate to sink into the mantle.
Why does cold air always chase warm air?
Cold air is denser than warm air, so it tends to sink and move underneath the warmer, lighter air. This creates a pressure difference that causes the cold air to push the warm air out of the way as it moves. This process is known as cold air chasing warm air.
Chlorine gas and oxygen which is heavy?
Chlorine gas is heavier than oxygen. Chlorine gas has a molar mass of 70.9 g/mol, while oxygen has a molar mass of 32 g/mol. This difference in molar mass causes chlorine gas to be heavier and therefore it will tend to sink below oxygen in a mixture.
What causes the water in the blue currents to sink?
Cold water sinks, while warm water rises.
When cold water sinks where does it go?
Water is most dense at 4° C and so because water at cold temperatures has a greater mass per volume it will sink below warmer water.
Why does oceanic rock always sink below continental rock?
subduction
Will cold water sink or swim?
SiNk
If a mass of ocean water is cold and salty what will it where on earth's surface is this event common?
the salt will sink to the ocean floor and it happens at the poles.
What do you call a basement sink?
just a sink Below surface (grade) sink
Why doesn't a warm air mass under a cold air mass at a warm front?
A warm air mass rises over a cold air mass at a warm front because warm air is less dense than cold air. This results in the warm air mass being forced to rise and cool, leading to the formation of clouds and precipitation at the boundary of the two air masses.
What is dry cold?
dry cold is a cold that come in yr sink
Will a camera sink in quicksand?
Anything with weight and mass will sink in quicksand.
Does mass sink?
Yes, mass sinks due to gravity. Objects with greater mass will have a stronger gravitational pull, causing them to sink towards the center of the mass of another object.
When warm air rises cold air will what?
The cold air will sink.
Does the cold from sublimating dry ice sink?
Cold is not a substance, so it can't sink. The air around the dry ice, and the gaseous carbon dioxide being formed will be cold and therefore dense, so they will sink through warmer air.
What type of air mass is when cold air sinks?
The type of air mass characterized by sinking cold air is known as a "polar air mass." These air masses typically form over cold regions, such as polar areas or ice-covered surfaces, and are denser than warmer air. When they sink, they can lead to high-pressure systems, resulting in clear skies and stable weather conditions.
