Buys Ballots law says that if you stand with your back to the wind, the area of low pressure is on your left. It is referring to the area or centre, not individual isobars, although it follows that the pressure on your left will be generally lower than on your right.

What do close isobar lines represent?
Weather Maps: An isobar that is a closed circle indicates an area of high ("H") or low ("L") pressure center. Geographic Maps: An elevation on the map you are looking at. Sometimes numbers accompany the ring, to tell the elevation. Some times there are no numbers.
What does an isobar on a map tell?
It joins places of similar barometric pressure
How are isobars used to show pressure centers?
Isobars are lines that join areas of the same pressure. Low pressure areas are circular, so the isobar lines will form a loop and join ends. The varying pressures can now be seen as concentric rings, with the lowest pressure at the center of the circle.
What are the lines on a map that connect points of equal pressure called?
The isolines that connect the points of equal atmospheric pressure are called iseidomal. These terms are common when using the barometer.
Is an isobar line that connects places that have the same air temperature?
No, an isobar line connects places that have the same atmospheric pressure. Isotherm lines, on the other hand, connect places with the same air temperature.
What do the numbers on the isobar mean?
it is the pressure of the atmosphere
Isochore is to volume as isobar is to what?
definitely pressure
What is icobar?
If you meant isobar - An isobar is a line on a map showing air pressure. the closer the isobars are packed together, the lower the pressure, and stronger the wind is.
What does the number at the end of a isobar represent?
Atmospheric pressure.
How isobar diagram is used?
An isobar diagram is commonly used in weather forecasting. It shows lines of equal air pressure.
What connects of equal pressure?
An isobar is a line connecting two equal points of pressure.
What do close isobar lines represent?
Weather Maps: An isobar that is a closed circle indicates an area of high ("H") or low ("L") pressure center. Geographic Maps: An elevation on the map you are looking at. Sometimes numbers accompany the ring, to tell the elevation. Some times there are no numbers.
