Question

which industrial city would have fewer air pollution incidents related to temperature inversions one on the great plains or one near the rocky mountains? explain your answer.

Answer 1

I think that the plains, because the temp. is the same all around, cuz its flat... the mountains get cold at the top

Answer 2

The Great Plains

Step-by-step explanation:

Hot air has a much lower density than cold air and for this reason, the large plains would be ideal for an industrial city if the goal is to have fewer air pollution incidents related to temperature inversions. This is because if the large plains are lower, soon the hot air will rise while the cold air will tend to go down.

In short, within the great plains the hot air being less dense rises, in contrast, the cold air (more dense) descends, forming the convection currents.
