∙ 13y agoIn meteorology, low pressure spins cyclonically and high pressure spins anticyclonically. Cyclonic motion in the northern hemisphere is clockwise, and the opposite in the southern hemisphere.

Does a high pressure system rotate clockwise?
yes it also moves away from the center
In the northern hemisphere high pressure systems rotate?
rotates in CL(Ck wise direction
What are anticyclones in geography?
An anticyclone is the opposite of a depression. A depression stays for a short time whereas an anticyclone stays for a long period of time. In other words, an anticyclone is a high-pressure area, a circulation of winds around a central region of high atmospheric pressure, clockwise in the Northern Hemisphere, anticlockwise in the Southern Hemisphere.
What direction does air rotate in the center of a high pressure system in the Northern hemisphere?
Good weather is usually associate with a high pressure system, which rotates clockwise in the northern hemisphere. CORRECTION FROM MADDIE:NO! Good weather rotates COUNTER -clockswise!I had other sources! smh.
Are capillaries under high or low pressure?
Average pressure, think about it as the distance from the heart. Capillaries are exactly the half way point between veins and arteries. Arteries are high pressure, veins are low pressure.
Are winds clockwise in high pressure?
Winds rotate clockwise about a high pressure system if it is in the northern hemisphere. If the system is in the southern nehmisphere the winds will rotate counterclockwise.
Why do high and low pressure systems rotate?
wind
Why do high and low pressures rotate?
High pressure and low pressures rotate because when they combine they spin and create a tornadoe
Does a high pressure system rotate clockwise?
yes it also moves away from the center
What describes anticyclones?
An anticyclone is a high-pressure weather system characterized by fair weather and winds that rotate around the center of highest pressure. Systems in the northern hemisphere rotate clockwise while those in the Southern Hemisphere rotate counterclockwise.
In the northern hemisphere high pressure systems rotate?
rotates in CL(Ck wise direction
In term of rotation what is the difference between high and low pressure system?
They rotate in opposite directions. High pressure rotates clockwise in the northern hemisphere and counterclockwise in the southern hemisphere. Low pressure is just the opposite.
What do nuclear power plants use to turn a turbine that is used to rotate the generator?
Steam at high pressure
Do high pressure systems move clockwise or counterclockwise?
In the northern hemisphere wind blow around high-pressure systems in a clockwise direction. In the southern hemisphere, the wind blow is in the opposite (anticlockwise) direction.
What way do winds rotate around a tropical depression?
As with all low pressure systems the winds of a tropical depression rotate counterclockwise if it is in the northern hemisphere and clockwise if it is in the southern.
Is 181 too high for blood pressure?
yes 181 is way too high for bld pressure
