Answer:
A number of factors are affected and are dependent on the temperature of the air:
- The density of the air
- The volume of the air
- The moisture-holding capacity of the air
- The speed of circulation of the air
Explanation:
- Density and volume: The temperature of the air is inversely proportional to its density.
Density ∝ (1/Temperature)
The warm air becomes less dense and rises up. Cold air becomes denser and settles at the bottom.
On the other hand, the temperature is directly proportional to the volume of the air.
The volume of the air ∝ temperature - Moisture-holding capacity: The moisture-holding capacity of a given mass of air is directly proportional to its temperature. Moisture-holding capacity ∝ temperature
Warmer air can hold more quantity of moisture in it than cooler air. - Speed of air circulation: As the air becomes warmer, it becomes less dense and rises up. This creates a vacuum, or more accurately, a low-pressure system in the area. To maintain the equilibrium, cold air rushes into the place. Thus, the wind speed depends on the temperature and the degree to which air rises up. The faster the air in a particular area gets heated, the more the wind speed.
∴ The temperature of air ∝ wind speed
