Hi, I just got my Macbook air and installed some apps on it. But it started
to get hot and I don't know why. The ram usage is 5 GBs out of 16 GBs
and CPU usage is about 7%. But still the bottom of my computer is hot as
****. Is there anything I can do? I ran diagnostics but it told me that
nothing is wrong.

Use Activity Monitor to check CPU activity, and other aspects of the Mac.
The Learn more section in main article above, has other things to look into.
..Read through the entire article; as links can go into detailed subtopics..
Depending on which system and build year model, certain things could be checked;
maybe SMC reset (power reset) and/or NVRAM/PRAM reset could help. Instructions
are detailed; and for newer portable Macs, some different steps are required to reset.
Some aspects of these resets may require trying more than two times; since they have
specific actions that must be performed to work. ~ If not correctly done, they won't.
Take care & good luck!🌞🐝
