Land and Sea Breeze

Why does land heat up faster than water when exposed to the sun?

• Land has a lower density than water.

• Water has a higher heat capacity than land.

• Land absorbs more sunlight than water.

• Water reflects more sunlight than land.

What happens to warm air particles compared to cool air particles?

• Warm air particles become more dense and sink.

• Cool air particles become less dense and rise.

• Warm air particles become less dense and rise.

• Both warm and cool air particles have the same density.

What is formed when warm air rises over land and cool air sinks over the sea?

• A high-pressure system.

• A low-pressure system.

• A convection cell.

• A stationary front.

What conditions typically lead to the formation of a sea breeze during the day?

• Warm air over the sea, cool air over the land.

• Cool air over the sea, warm air over the land.

• Equal temperatures over both land and sea.

• High pressure over the land, low pressure over the sea.

How is a breeze or wind typically named?

• By the direction it is blowing towards.

• By the type of air (warm or cool) it carries.

• By the area where it originates.

• By the speed at which it travels.

What is the primary reason land breezes occur at night, unlike sea breezes during the day?

• The moon's gravitational pull affects air pressure.

• Land cools down faster than the sea.

• The sea heats up faster than the land.

• There is less wind activity at night.

During a land breeze, what is the general movement of air?

• Warm air moves from the land towards the sea.

• Cool air moves from the sea towards the land.

• Cool air moves from the land towards the sea.

• Warm air moves from the sea towards the land.
