opposite of rise

How would you complete this sentence?

Hot air rises while cool air ...

Is it possible descends? And what about goes down? Any other possibilities?

Thanks in advance.

There are other possibilities, but they wouldn't quite fit. I like your "goes down".

It depends on what it is that is not rising. The sun? The stock price?

Sink, descend, fall, plummet, decline... it really depend on the context.
