How might a high pressure system affect the level of air pollution in an area?
A high pressure system can possibly decrease the amount of air pollution in an area because it creates an enviroment that's hard for gases or toxins to rise in the air. That's also why clouds are rarely seen in a high pressure system.
What sudden change in air pressure causes movement?
The movement of pressure systems; highs and lows. When a low approaches, which is an area of rising air, pressures fall and when a high approaches, which is an area of sinking air, pressures rise.
What is an area of high pressure where air moves aparts and sinks?
An area of high pressure where the air moves apart and sinks is an anticyclone.
What is a low-pressure system and what is a high-pressure system?
The difference is that Low air pressure has less air molecules pushing down in one area and high air pressure has more air molecules pushing down in one area.
What is it called when area of low pressure where air masses meet and rise?
cyclone
Do clouds rise in the center of a low pressure or high pressure area?
Air rises in a low pressure area and sinks in a high pressure area.
Does the air in a high pressure area rise or fall?
It sinks

What does air do in a high pressure area?
A high pressure area is usually an area that is being cooled, making the air move toward the ground. It gradually moves away from the high pressure area toward a low pressure area.
Why does low pressure air rise and high pressure air sink?
High pressure sinks because there is a lot of particles together and low pressure is when particles are spread out
What moves from a high pressure area to a low pressure area?
Air.
What is an area of high pressure where air moves aparts and sinks?
An area of high pressure where the air moves apart and sinks is an anticyclone.
What is the movement of air from an area of low air pressure to high air pressure?
density
Area of low pressure where air masses meet and rise?
cyclone :)
How are the air masses and fronts different?
Air mass - refers to any area of high or low pressure. A front - is the point at which an area of high pressure meets an area of low pressure.
What will move from a high pressure to a low pressure area?
Air.
