Explain the process of the air transferred from low pressure to high pressure in the Air compressor system to produces the energy?
explain the process of the air transferred from low pressure to high pressure in the Air compressor system to produces the energy
How is most thermal energy in the atmosphere transfered?
From the surface, it would be via convection currents
When hot and cold air meet the hot air rises to the top Which process causes the hot air to rise?
convection (studyisland answer)
What process takes place when water vapor molecules in the atmosphere stick to particles in the air and becomes a liquid?
"condensation"
Can heat be transferred in the air?
Yes, in pockets of air, energy in the form of heat can be transferred by either convection currents, or by radiation.
Once heat from the Sun penetrates the Earth's atmosphere the heat is circulated as warm air rises and cold air sinks. What is this process called?
RADIATION

If the process of melting absorbs heat energy from the surroundings then what would the process of freezing do?
Melting is the result of enough heat energy being transferred INTO an object to turn it into a liquid. Freezing is the result of enough heat energy being transferred OUT of a liquid to turn it into a solid. Melting and freezing are not as much of a "process" as they are a result. For example: When you put water into the freezer, the heat energy in the warm water is transferred into the colder air, which causes the water to freeze. That process causes the air in the freezer to warm up slighltly. The process of refridgeration then transfers that heat out of the freezer, which makes the air in the freezer nice and cold again.
What happens as parts of the convection cycle in earths atmosphere?
Cold, denser air falls
What do cold fronts and warm fronts do?
cold fronts is where the air is all condenced and when it is a warm front then it will push all of the cold air out of the atmosphere and it will probably be a storm
Is the air in the memosphere cold?
Yes. Actually, it is the coldest layer in the atmosphere.
What process is energy transferred when sound waves travel through the air?
Mechanical energy
When hot and cold air meet the hot air rises to the top but which process causes the hot air to rise?
hot air rises because it is less dense than cold air..this occurs by the process of convection
Why do convection currents take place in the atmosphere?
cold air is less dense
What part of the convection cycle happens in the atmosphere?
Cold,denser air falls
Why does air in the atmosphere move?
Temperature differences is why air moves in the atmosphere. Hot air rises, cold air falls. With these temperature difference comes pressure differences and these temp. and pressure differences are what keep the air moving. Theoretically, if there were no temp. or pressure differences in the atmosphere, air would not move.
What is plutos atmosphere like?
Pluto's atmosphere is mostly ice it gets so cold even its air freezes. temp is -240 in summer -260 in its winter.
