Answer:
A : hot and moist, maritime tropical
B: cold and dry, maritime polar
C: hot and moist , maritime tropical
D: cold and dry, continental polar
E: hot and moist , maritime tropical
F: cold and dry , maritime polar
Explanation:
Cold air is denser than warm air. The more water vapor that is in the air, the less dense the air becomes. That is why cold, dry air is much heavier than warm, humid air.
Maritime polar (mP) air masses are cool, moist, and unstable. Some maritime polar air masses originate as continental polar air masses over Asia and move westward over the Pacific, collecting warmth and moisture from the ocean.
Maritime tropical (mT) air masses are warm, moist, and usually unstable.
Answer:
4,200 joules per kilogram per degree Celsius
Explanation:
The specific heat capacity of a material is the energy required to raise one kilogram (kg) of the material by one degree Celsius (°C). The specific heat capacity of water is 4,200 joules per kilogram per degree Celsius (J/kg°C). This means that it takes 4,200 J to raise the temperature of 1 kg of water by 1°C.
Answer:
<em>When a balloon deflates air moves out of the balloon </em><em>because the pressure inside the balloon is higher than the pressure outside the balloon.</em>
Explanation:
An inflated balloon has a high pressure region on its inside. Gases always move from a region of high pressure to a region of low pressure. When a balloon is inflated its membrane stretches making it even more porous.
The gas molecules inside the balloon easily diffuse out through this membrane. The diffusion rate may differ depending on the type of gas filled inside the balloon and the material of the balloon. For example helium balloon deflates faster than common air balloon.
This is because helium is a light element and can escape easier than gases like nitrogen and oxygen through the porous membrane of the balloon.
The 48 and 47 are different atomic masses, this is caused by having a different number of neutrons.
