What else can I help you with?
What do you call a hot air mass that forms over land?
A hot air mass that forms over land is called a continental air mass.
What kind of weather does a continental tropical air mass bring?
A continental tropical air mass typically brings dry and hot weather to the areas it moves over. This air mass originates over hot and arid regions, leading to high temperatures and low humidity.
Does hot air weighs more than cold air?
No, hot air does not weigh more than cold air. In general, air at different temperatures still has the same mass per unit volume, or density. The weight of a given volume of air depends more on its mass and not on its temperature.
What is a characteristic for continental air masses?
Continental Polar cP air mass is an air mass formed over land in a cold region with cold dry airMaritime tropical mT air mass is an air mass that forms over water in a warm region with warm wet air
In the summer does the continental tropical air mass form over Mexico and brings dry hot air to southwestern US?
Yes, the continental tropical air mass often forms over Mexico during the summer months, bringing dry and hot air to the southwestern United States. This air mass originates from the hot desert regions of northern Mexico and can lead to high temperatures and a lack of moisture in the affected areas.
What is a cT air mass?
This refers to a continental, tropical air mass. It is typically hot and dry.http://cimss.ssec.wisc.edu/wxwise/class/frntmass.html
What air mass is hot and dry?
A hot and dry air mass is typically associated with a continental tropical air mass. These air masses form over hot, arid regions and are characterized by high temperatures and low humidity levels.
What do you call a hot air mass that forms over land?
A hot air mass that forms over land is called a continental air mass.
Why do hot air mass float over cold air mass?
heat rises
What triggers the development of tornatoes?
a cold air mass colliding with a hot air mass
What is continental tropic?
A continental tropical is a very hot and dry air mass produced over subtropical arid regions. A continental tropical air mass is found in the Southwest portion of the United States.
In general direction is the hot and dry air mass most likely to move?
the hot and dry air mass are most likely to rise
What is an air mass that forms over a desert called?
Hot, dry and low pressure forms over hot deserts. Known as a tropical continental air mass.
Why do hot air masses rise over cold air masses?
Hot air has less mass which make it less dense, thus allowing it to rise over a cold air mass.
What are examples of matter changing volume but not changing the mass?
When air is heated, that volume of air expands (which is why hot air balloons go up). The hot air has changed in volume, but it is still the same mass.
In which general direction is the hot and dry air mass most likely to move?
The hot and dry air mass is most likely to move in the direction where lower pressure systems exist. This typically means that it will move towards areas with cooler temperatures or where moist air masses are located.
When is a hot air balloon behaving like an air mass in a high pressure area?
A hot air balloon behaves like an air mass in a high pressure area when it is descending. As the balloon descends, it enters a region of higher atmospheric pressure where the surrounding air is denser. This denser air can cause the hot air balloon to slow down and even sink if it cannot maintain its buoyancy.
