What does air do at the equator?

Mostly get hot and rise.


If earth did not rotate how would air at the equator move?

Without Earth's rotation, the air at the equator would move from high to low pressure in a straight line towards the poles. This is because air moves from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure, creating a simple north-south airflow pattern.


Why does the air over the equator rise?

Probably because it is warmer and hence lighter.


How do you create a butterfly in Doodle God?

Worm+air= butterfly


Air is warmer and less dense than surrounding air at the equator because the equator receives more?

solar radiation throughout the year. As a result, air at the equator is heated, causing it to rise and creating low pressure. This warm air then moves towards the poles, where it cools, becomes denser, and sinks back towards the surface.


What causes the low pressure regions that prevails over the tropics?

Constant heating from the sun causes air to rise, then flow away from the equator. Sinking air in the subtropics spreads out and some of it flows toward the equator. This creates a "cell" (Hadley Cell) of circulation that constantly generates rising air at the equator and therefore low pressure.


Does the equator rise or fall?

It does not rise or fall. It is an imaginary line.


Is jet streams cause by earth rotation?

Partially. The pressure difference between warm air near equator and cold air near arctic causes air to rise at equator travel north to arctic then down and south back to equator. The rotation of the earth bends that north-south belt - faster at the equator than at the slower rotation at arctic. The result of both is the jet stream.


Why does air rise at the equator?

Air rises at the equator because it is heated more intensely than at other latitudes due to the direct overhead position of the sun. This causes the air to expand and become less dense, leading to upward movement known as convection, creating a low-pressure zone.


When did Air Equator end?

Air Equator ended in 2005.


When was Air Equator created?

Air Equator was created in 2003.


Major air masses rise from the Earth's surface at which degree?

Air masses rise from the Earth's surface at an angle of approximately 30 degrees. This movement is due to the rotation of the Earth, known as the Coriolis effect, which deflects air masses towards the poles.
