What 2 types of air need to collide to form a tornado?

The common statement is that tornadoes develp when warm and cold air collide, but this grossly oversimplifies what is going on. The collision of warm and cold air masses is not the direct cause of tornadoes nor, is it completely necessary. If there is enough instability in the warm air mass, the collision can lead to the formation of thunderstorms. If a few other conditions are right these storms might go on to produce tornadoes. However such storms may also form wheredry air pushes into moist air. They can sometimes even form from convective storm systems without any colliding air masses.


What 2 things that use hot air to rise?

Hot air balloons and thermal air currents are two things that use hot air to rise. The heating of the air makes it less dense, causing it to become buoyant and lift objects or create upward movement.


Is a warm front mass of warm air that moves into a region that has cooler air?

Jump to: navigation, searchApproaching weather fronts are often visible from the ground, but are not always as well defined as thisA weather front is a boundary separating two masses of air of different densities, and is the principal cause of meteorological phenomena. In surface weather analyses, fronts are depicted using various colored lines and symbols, depending on the type of front. The air masses separated by a front usually differ in temperature and humidity. Cold fronts may feature narrow bands of thunderstorms and severe weather, and may on occasion be preceded by squall lines or dry lines. Warm fronts are usually preceded by stratiform precipitation and fog. The weather usually clears quickly after a front's passage. Some fronts produce no precipitation and little cloudiness, although there is invariably a wind shift.[1]Cold fronts and occluded fronts generally move from west to east, while warm fronts move poleward. Because of the greater density of air in their wake, cold fronts and cold occlusions move faster than warm fronts and warm occlusions. Mountains and warm bodies of water can slow the movement of fronts.[2] When a front becomes stationary, and the density contrast across the frontal boundary vanishes, the front can degenerate into a line which separates regions of differing wind velocity, known as a shearline. This is most common over the open ocean.hope it helps!!!!


List 2 examples of heat transfer by convection?

Two examples of heat transfer by convection can be water in a pan being heated and our surrounding atmosphere. First, water in a pan being heated can be picture by imagining the bottom of the pan to be more hotter than that of the top of the pan. If that's true then the molecules in the bottom will rise up and the cooler molecules on the top will go to the bottom and cycles until they are at equal temperature. Second, our atmosphere is also like that of the water in a pan. When we have a hot day the warmer air at the bottom will rise up because the warm air expands and becomes less dense than its surrounding air (so warm air will rise up like a balloon). You can think of it as when we heat up air molecules that are near the ground due to gravity, the warmer the molecules become they tend to be more active or kinetic than the cooler molecules and zip by farther areas which leads them to rise up and cooler molecules in the air go at the bottom and repeats the cycle. Hope this helps =]


Why are there 2 directions on a ceiling fan?

Ceiling fans have two directions, clockwise and counterclockwise, to provide different airflow patterns. In the warmer months, a counterclockwise direction creates a breeze that can make a room feel cooler. In the colder months, a clockwise direction helps circulate warm air trapped near the ceiling back down to the living space.

Is it true the border between 2 air masses may be either cold or warm fronts?

Yes, that is correct. When a cold air mass meets a warm air mass, it can form a cold front if the cold air mass advances and undercuts the warm air mass. Conversely, it can form a warm front if the warm air mass rises over the cold air mass as it advances.

Describe the four major types of fronts?

1) Warm front - warm air mass replacing a cold air mass at ground level. Typically shifts wind southeasterly to southwesterly. 2) Cold front - Cold air replacing warm air at ground level. Tyoically shifts southwesterly to northwesterly 3) Stationary front - Equal amount of energy between warm and cold air masses creating a "stalemate".


When 2 air masses meet what happens?

The boundary between two air masses is called a front. A warm front develops when a warm air mass pushes against a cold air mass. Rain usually occurs in a warm front and if temperature is low enough, snow falls.
