What else can I help you with?
The type of fog that results when moist air moves across a cold surface is?
Advection fog results when moist air moved across a cold surface. When moving across a cold surface, the air is cooled to its dew point.
Is fog hot or cold?
Fog is neither hot nor cold, as it is composed of tiny water droplets suspended in the air. The temperature of the fog will generally be similar to the surrounding air temperature.
When you breathe onto a cold window droplets appear it is an example of?
Condensation - the cold glass causes the warm air to condense from gas to liquid.
What is it called when water droplets appear on the outside of a cold glass?
It is called condensation. This occurs when warm, moist air comes into contact with a cold surface, such as a glass of cold water, causing the air to lose its ability to hold moisture and resulting in water droplets forming on the surface.
What two air masses would most likely form a tornado when they meet?
A warm, moist air mass and a cold, dry air mass are most likely to form a tornado when they meet. The warm air rises rapidly, creating instability, while the cold air creates a temperature difference that enhances the development of severe thunderstorms and tornadoes.
What air mass composed of cold moist air?
A maritime polar air mass is composed of cold, moist air.
Why are thunderstorms often assocciated with the arrival of a moving cold front?
The warm air mass carries warm moist air. The cold front brings cold, dense air. Because this cold air is denser, as it ploughs through the warm moist air it forces it upwards. This warm moist air being pushed up at speed is what causes cumulonimbus clouds to form along the cold front, and hence thunderstorms.
The type of the fog that results when moist air move across a cold surface is?
Advection fog results when moist air moved across a cold surface. When moving across a cold surface, the air is cooled to its dew point.
What is the name of the front when cold air moves under warm moist air?
The front you are referring to is called a cold front. Cold air is denser than warm air, so when a mass of cold air moves underneath warm, moist air, it lifts the warm air rapidly, leading to the formation of clouds and potentially precipitation.
What air mass is indicated by composed of cold dry air?
The air mass indicated by cold dry air is a continental polar air mass, designated as cP. This air mass originates over cold land regions and brings cold, dry conditions when it moves into other areas.
What develops when cold dry air becomes warm and moist?
A tornado.
Which are the characteristics of a maritime polar air mass?
A maritime polar air mass is characterized as a cold and moist air mass.
The type of fog that results when moist air moves across a cold surface is?
Advection fog results when moist air moved across a cold surface. When moving across a cold surface, the air is cooled to its dew point.
Composed of cold dry air?
A cold front is composed of cold, dense air that moves in to replace warm air. This often leads to unstable atmospheric conditions and can result in precipitation and strong winds.
Why is warm air used to remove fog in cars?
"Fog" generally is composed of tiny droplets of water condensed from moist air as it cools. In a car it refers to the water condensed onto the cold windows. Warming the air and glass re-evaporates the water.
Identify the air mass indicated by this description composed of cold dry air?
Continental polar is indicated by composed of cold dry air.
What temperature do ice storms form at?
they form when you have extremly cold and moist air.
