Which weather tool measures air temperature?
A thermometer is the weather tool used to measure air temperature. It typically consists of a glass tube containing a liquid, such as mercury or alcohol, that expands or contracts based on the temperature of the surrounding air, providing a reading of the temperature.
What helps maintain earths surface temperature?
The Sun heats up the Earth At least, mostly It heats up the molecules in the air, which also explains why it's colder the higher you are- there are less air molecules for the Sun to heat up
What effect does the obsence of heat have on air molecules?
The absence of heat causes air molecules to lose energy and slow down, leading to a decrease in their kinetic energy and movement. This can result in a decrease in air pressure, density, and volume. Ultimately, the absence of heat can lead to a decrease in temperature and the formation of colder air masses.
What is the average kinetic energy of all atoms and molecules that make up a substance called?
Temperature, which is the average kinetic energy of all the particles that make up a substance. :0temperature
How temperature affects particle movement?
Temperature IS the average speed of movement of the particles molecules that make up an object. The more heat you add to an object, the faster the molecules move vibrate. There are devices thermometers that indirectly measure this speed, and thus report the temperature.
