Weather/convection

What is the relationship between Density and Temperature?

• Cold water is more dense than warm water.
• Warm Water is more dense than cold water.
• Warm water and cold water have the same density.

What causes wind?

• Conduction

• Radiation

• Convection

Isobars are curved lines that measure

• Equal areas of wind
• Equal areas of pressure
• Equal areas of humidity

Wind is caused by

• Uneven heating of the Earth's surface by the sun causing conduction

• Uneven heating of the Earth's surface by the sun causing convection

Convection is:

• The movement of energy through fluids.
• The movement of smoke.
• When things go in a circle.
• A type of bagel.

Warm air has..

• more air pressure.
• less air pressure.
• no air pressure.
• billions of air pressures.

Cold air has..

• more air pressure.
• less air pressure.
• no air pressure.
• billions of air pressures.

A cold front is when:

• A cold air mass pushes warm air up and out of the way.
• Warm air mass slowly pushes cold air mass out of the way.

A warm front is when:

• A cold air mass pushes warm air up and out of the way.
• Warm air mass slowly pushes cold air mass out of the way.

Uneven heating of Earth's surface creates?

• Global Warming

• Convection Currents

• Climate Change

• Rainbows
