About This Lesson
So, what happens to the warm air and cold air when the earth spins? We can demonstrate this with a “cold” source (ice), a heat source (heat lamp), a turntable, a round pan of water and some food coloring. The water simulates air, so we see what happens when the hot and cold “airflows” meet each other. This is a great way to make a hurricane!
