Question

Which of the following two events occur to create a sea breeze? Select all that apply. Warm air rises on the ocean and moves toward the land to cool Warm air rises on land and moves toward the ocean to cool Cool air moves from the ocean to be warmed by the land Cool air moves from the land to be warmed by the ocean

Answer 1

Answer:

Warm air rises on land and moves toward the ocean to cool

Cool air moves from the ocean to be warmed by the land

Explanation:

The land heats up faster than the oceans during the day. This is because water has a high heat capacity and takes more energy to raise its temperatures by one degree (even in comparison to land). Therefore land heats up the air above it faster than the oceans. The air mass over land rises due to drop in density. The cooler and denser air mass above the oceans moves towards land to replace the rising warm air. This creates a cool breeze felt on land during the day as the cool air rushes in.
