What happens when cold air meets warm air 

  1. it forms front

  2. it creats a tomado

  3. it creates a mansoon

  4. none of these


Correct Option: A

When a fluid is heated, it expands and becomes

  1. lighter

  2. heavier

  3. no change

  4. none of these


Correct Option: A
Explanation:
As on heating the air expands and occupies more space. When the same thing occupies more space, it becomes lighter. The warm air is, therefore, lighter than the cold.

Iron, hydrogen peroxide and carbon dioxide. When same amount heat is supplied to these three substances, which expands most?

  1. Hydrogen peroxide

  2. Carbon dioxide

  3. Iron

  4. All of these


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Carbon dioxide being a gas expands the most. 

Which of the following will rise the highest?

  1. Air at 10$^o$C

  2. Air at 40$^o$C

  3. Air at 20$^o$C

  4. Air at -5$^o$C


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

As the temperature of air rises, it becomes lighter and moves at a faster rate and thus it rises higher in the atmosphere.

Thus air at $40^oC$ will rise the highest in the atmosphere.

Why do two balloons come closer when we blow in the space between them ?

  1. Greater pressure inside the balloons than the reduced pressure in between them drives the balloons towards one another.

  2. Blowing air in between increases the pressure in between the balloons pulls them closer.

  3. The gravitational force pulls the two balloons closer.

  4. None of the above.


Correct Option: A
Explanation:
When we blow between two balloons, they come closer because the pressure between the balloon decreases. The pressure inside the balloon would then push them towards each other.

Which of the following is/are true?

  1. The wind blows because of differences in air pressure from one location to another

  2. Wind blows from areas of high pressure toward areas of low pressure

  3. If the high pressure area is very close to the low pressure area, or if the pressure difference is very great, the wind can blow very fast

  4. All of the above


Correct Option: D
Explanation:
Wind flowing is the result of pressure difference in air between the two regions. Winds flows from the region of higher pressure to the region of lower pressure. Greater is the pressure difference, greater is the speed of the wing flowing and vice-versa.
Thus all the statemements are true, so option D is correct.

Which of the following is/are correct?

  1. Warm air rises

  2. Cold air rises

  3. Cold air sink

  4. Both A and B


Correct Option: A,C
Explanation:

Warmer air becomes lighter and so it rises whereas cold air sinks.

Which of the following is/are NOT true?

  1. Temperature also makes changes in air pressure

  2. In cold air, the molecules are more closely packed together than in warm air, so cold air is more dense than warm air

  3. Air pressure depends on the density of the air, or how close together its molecules are

  4. None of the above


Correct Option: D
Explanation:
Air pressure is dependent on the temperature of air. More is the temperature, more is the air pressure and vice-versa. In cold air, the temperature is low and so the molecules of air have less kinetic energy. Due to this, the molecules are more closely packed together than in warmer air and so cold air is more dense than warm air. This also suggests that lesser is the temperature of air, more is the density of air and less is the air pressure. Hence, air pressure also depends on the density of the air.
So, all the statements are true.

____ pressure indicates sinking air where clouds cannot form. ____ pressure indicates rising air, which allows clouds to form, bringing rain or snow. Fill in the blank.

  1. High, high

  2. High, low

  3. Low , low

  4. Low, high


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

High pressure indicates sinking air where clouds cannot form. Low pressure indicates rising air, which allows clouds to form, bringing rain or snow.

When a vehicle travels very fast, a region of ______ is created temporarily just behind it.

  1. High pressure

  2. Low pressure

  3. High density

  4. Cyclone


Correct Option: B
Explanation:
When a vehicle moves very fast, a low pressure is produced temporarily and the wind nearby rushes in to fill its place.

Which of the following principle shows that if you increase air speed its pressure will decrease?

  1. Darwin principle

  2. Einstein principle

  3. Bohr principle

  4. Bernoulli's principle


Correct Option: D
Explanation:
According to Bernoulli's principle, Fast moving air equals low air pressure while slow moving air equals high air pressure.
 Bernoulli's principle states that an increase in the speed of a fluid occurs simultaneously with a decrease in pressure. The same is applicable in case of gases also.

Increase in air speed is associated with ______________ .

  1. increasein air pressure

  2. decrease in air pressure

  3. increase in air temperature

  4. decrease in air temperature


Correct Option: B
Explanation:
The increased wind speed is accompanied by a reduced air pressure.

A piece of paper is kept on the table.  You have to lift it from the table by blowing high-speed air over it. In which direction will you blow the air?

  1. Sideways

  2. In the upward direction

  3. In the downward direction

  4. In the upward direction below the table


Correct Option: A
Explanation:
In order to lift the paper up from the table we need to blow air in sideways.

Two pieces of papers are held parallel. Air is blown with a high speed in between them. Which of the following phenomena will be observed?

  1. The papers will move away from each other.

  2. The papers will move towards each other.

  3. The papers will stay at their position.

  4. The papers will catch fire due to increase in air temperature.


Correct Option: B
Explanation:
It seems amazing that the two sheets of paper move closer together, the pressure is reduced where the air is moving quickly. This is called the Bernoulli principle. 

Why is warm air lighter than cold air?

  1. Due to heating, the pressure of air increases and air with higher pressure is lighter than air with lower pressure.

  2. Due to heating, the pressure of air decreases and air with lower pressure is lighter than air with higher pressure.

  3. Due to heating, air expands. When same mass occupies more volume it becomes lighter.

  4. Due to heating, air contracts. When same mass occupies less volume it becomes lighter.


Correct Option: C
Explanation:
Warm air lighter than cold air because on heating the air expands and occupies more space. When the same thing occupies more space, it becomes lighter.

The air just above the flame of burning candle will ____________.

  1. Rise up

  2. Moves down

  3. Moves sideways

  4. It will not move in any direction.


Correct Option: A
Explanation:
The burning candle releases hot air, and we know hot air rises up.

The warm air ___, and the cooler air from the regions in the 030 degrees latitude belt on either side of the ____moves in.

  1. moves downwards, equator

  2. rises, pole

  3. rises, equator

  4. moves downwards, pole


Correct Option: C
Explanation:
The warm air at the latitudes rises up and the cold wind from the polar regions rushes in, to take its place.

Choose the correct options (one or more) 
At the equator, the air is _____ than that at latitudes about 30 degrees.

  1. warmer

  2. colder

  3. heavier

  4. lighter


Correct Option: A,D
Explanation:
As we know regions close to the equator get maximum heat from the Sun. Hence, the air in these regions gets warm and warm air is lighter and rises up.

Choose the correct options (one or more)
At the poles, the air is _____ than that at latitudes about 60 degrees.

  1. warmer

  2. colder

  3. lighter

  4. Heavier


Correct Option: B,D
Explanation:
At the poles, the air is colder than that at latitudes about 60 degrees and cold air is heavier than warm air.
