All else being equal, air volume increases when pressure decreases. Use this relationship to explain why warm air at the equator rises up through the less dense air above it.

Respuesta :

The relation between the volume and the pressure of the gas can be given by the ideal gas equation. Warm air has more volume and low pressure that makes them rise above the equator.

What is atmospheric pressure?

Pressure present and exerted by the atmospheric gases are called atmospheric pressure. The volume of the gas is in inverse relation to the pressure of the gas.

Warm air has a high volume compared to cold air. More volume results in low pressure making them rise above the dense layer of the equator region.

Therefore, the warm air rises due to a decrease in pressure.
