Yes, hurricanes derive their heat and energy primarily from warm sea water. When the ocean's surface temperature is sufficiently high, usually above 26.5 degrees Celsius (about 80 degrees Fahrenheit), it provides the necessary moisture and heat through evaporation. This warm, moist air rises, creating low pressure and fueling the storm's development and intensification. As the hurricane moves over cooler waters, it can weaken due to the reduced energy supply.
What else can I help you with?
Hurricanes get their heat and energy from seawater true or false?
true
Is it true that evaporation and condensation take place when water gains heat energy?
Evaporation is an endothermic process.Condensation is an exothermic process.
Is it true that hurricanes occur near bodies of water?
Yes, hurricanes primarily form over warm ocean waters where there is a sufficient amount of heat and moisture to fuel their development. Once formed, they can then move closer to land and bring damaging winds, heavy rainfall, and storm surge.
Why is it true that a cup of boiling water contains less heat than a large iceberg?
While the boiling water is at a higher temperature, the iceberg contains significantly more thermal energy due to its larger mass. The iceberg has stored more heat energy to maintain its frozen state, whereas the boiling water is closer to its boiling point but has less overall energy.
Is it true that category 5 hurricanes are the most destuctive?
That is true.
True or false hurricanes get their heat and energy from seawarter?
True
Hurricanes get their heat and energy from seawater true or false?
true
Is it true that a hurricanes get their heat and energy from seawater?
Yes, hurricanes get their heat and energy from warm seawater. When warm ocean water evaporates and rises, it releases heat into the atmosphere, providing the fuel needed for hurricanes to form and intensify.
When water vapor from the ocean condenses it releases energy that can build into a hurricane true or false?
True. When water vapor condenses, it releases a significant amount of latent heat energy. In the context of hurricanes, this energy is a crucial factor that helps to fuel their growth and intensity. As the warm water evaporates and condenses, it releases energy that contributes to the formation and strengthening of the storm.
What must be true for water to change temperture?
Energy in the form of heat must be added to the water.
True or false 10 g of ice contains less heat energy than 10 g of water?
True
How can sea temperature change a hurricane?
As I understand it, hurricanes develop, and enlarge as a result of absorbing ENERGY in the form of HEAT from the water over which they travel.Therefore, the greater the heat, the greater the chances of a hurricane growing larger and more violent. And the converse of that is also true: As the temperature of the mass [water or land] over which the hurricane travels decreases, the greater the tendency for it to weaken and dissipate.
Is a heat engine a device that converts mechanical energy into heat energy?
true
Can heat energy be transformed?
yes it can............ and if you're on OdysseyWare physics and it says:"Thermal energy produced by friction cannot usually be used to do work."True?orFalse?Your answer would be "true"=)
True or false a calorie is the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of 1 g of water 2 degrees C?
True. A calorie is defined as the amount of heat energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree Celsius.
Does Water at 0 degrees Fahrenheit have no heat energy or molecular activity?
Water at 0 degrees Fahrenheit still has heat energy and molecular activity, but it is in a solid state as ice. The molecules are still vibrating, just at a much slower rate compared to when water is in a liquid state.
How come hurricanes are weaker in warm water?
This isn't true. Hurricanes generally get stronger over warm water. Hurricanes are fueled by the moisture that evaporates from this warm water.The weaken over cold water and over land because they don't have that supply of moisture.
