Will the air molecules attain a new fixed acceleration at a specific temperature? Or does it attain a new fixed velocity at a specific temperature?
When air is heated up, the molecules in the air gain energy and move faster, causing an increase in temperature. This process is known as thermal expansion.
As air is heated up, its density decreases. This is because the increased molecular movement causes the molecules to spread out, creating more space between them.
When air is heated up, the pressure of the air increases. This is because the increased molecular movement creates more collisions between molecules, leading to a higher pressure.
When air is heated up, its relative humidity decreases. This is because warm air can hold more water vapor than cold air, so as the air temperature increases, the amount of water vapor it can hold also increases, resulting in a lower relative humidity.
As air is heated up, its volume increases. This is due to the thermal expansion process, where the increased molecular movement causes the air molecules to take up more space, resulting in an increase in volume.
