what properties of air must exist in order for thunderstorms and tornadoes to form? A. cold, high pressure B. warm, low pressure C. warm, high pressure D. cold, low pressure
i can't find the information i am looking for
Where did you look for that information? I gave you two possible search terms to look up.
I'm disappointed that you apparently closed our previous discussion.
but you were helping someone
Hi!
What do you think the answer is, we can start from there?
hi @Defiance
i think the answer is B
but i'm not sure i get confused by B and D
Okay, I'm not a great explainer, but I'll do my best to lead you.
Is "I think it's B" really a better way to find the answer to this question? What keeps you from checking an authority, such as the Internet or your science textbook?
It's not B :)
so it is D?
Well, yes, but do you know the reasoning?
no will you explain for me?please?
We often have thunderstorms when it's warm correct?
yes
On hot days the surface of the Earth heats. Causing conduction. (When water goes into the atmosphere), The warm air rises and the cold air sinks, (convection) The Warm air is forced the rise as the cold air is denser. Two of the most important ingredients for thunderstorm formation are instability (unstable air) and moisture. Well, this actually gives me B.. I guess.
This is kinda tricky question tho, Thunderstorms happen when it's warm, but Tornado's happen when it's colder.
If anyone wants to correct me they can, not great at sceince.
@Defiance thank you
