Expansion

Explanation:

Expansion is the change is size of a body with increasing temperature and tension.

Bridges are built of iron. Iron thermally expands in the presence of increased temperature during the day. The length of the iron will increase by simple fractions. At night, when temperature drops, the bar returns back to its initial position.

  • The allowance for expansion of the metal is made in order to prevent tension within the structure.
  • Not doing this will cause the material to break since there is no free space for the bar to change shape.

Which process contributes to the formation of tornados?
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

Warm air rises, resulting in a decrease air pressure.

Explanation:

Tornado is the rapid and violent rotation of column of air which move from the thunderstorm to the ground.

It is formed when there is collision between warm and cold air. The cold air which is more sense than the warm air is pushed over the warm air which result in thunderstorms. The warm air then rises which result in decrease air pressure causing an updraft. The updraft then begin to rotate as there are variations in wind speeds and directions.
