When sunlight strikes the ground it warms the ground and the air near it. the warm air near the ground then rises as it expands. what does this process typically result in on the ground? a) cool air rushes in to replace the rising warm air b) freezing conditions near the ground generate a high pressure system c) clouds push the warm air back to the ground d) floodwater rushes in to cool the hot surface

Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When sunlight strikes the ground then air near the region also becomes warm. As a result, air molecules gain kinetic energy due to which they tend to collide rapidly with each other.

Hence, warm air becomes less dense and rises into the atmosphere. Whereas col air being more dense occupies the place from where warm air has risen.

Thus, we can conclude that this process typically result in on the ground that cool air rushes in to replace the rising warm air.
