What causes two distinct pressure zone between the equator andthe poles?
The equators warm air, and the polar cold air.
Does air pressure affect earths weather?
It expands, rises, and becomes less dense.
How is earths air pressure different from seas air pressure?
It is different in that the seas don't have air pressure. No air; no air pressure.
Where is the highest air pressure?
air pressure is the highest near the earths surface
What happens to air pressure as the distance from Earths surface increases?
the air pressure increases
What describes changes in air motion resulting from earths rotation?
coriolis effects
What is the deflection of air masses resulting the earths eastward rotation?
Coriolis effect
How does unequal heating affect wind patterns?
hot air causes a low pressure system, cold air then rushes towards this low pressure system to equalise the earths atmosphere. the unequal heating causes unequal pressure systems and air moves to and from those pressure systems.
How does the air pressure on mars compare with earth?
earths average air pressure is 1013mb where as mars average air pressure is 7mb
How does unequal heating affect global wind pattern?
hot air causes a low pressure system, cold air then rushes towards this low pressure system to equalise the earths atmosphere. the unequal heating causes unequal pressure systems and air moves to and from those pressure systems.
The weight of the air on the earths surface is?
The weight of the air on the earth is called... Air Pressure
What rotation of air do high pressure systems have?
The rotation of high-pressure systems is anticyclonic: clockwise in the northern hemisphere and counterclockwise in the southern hemisphere.
