Do low pressure systems move inward or outward?

inward


Explain how air moves differently in low and high pressure systems?

High Pressure Systems-Move Clockwise -Move downward -Move outward Low pressure systems- Move counter clockwise -Move inward -Move upward


How does air move in the low and pressure systems?

Air flows counterclockwise and inward for all low pressure systems in the Northern Hemisphere and clockwise and inward in the Southern Hemisphere. And high pressure systems flow clockwise and outward in the Northern Hemisphere and in the Southern Hemisphere they flow counterclockwise and outward. On weather maps a high is represented as a capital H and is blue, while a low is represented as a capital L and is red.


What is the opposite of cyclone?

The opposite of a cyclone is an anticyclone. A cyclone is a low-pressure system with inward spiraling winds, while an anticyclone is a high-pressure system with outward spiraling winds.


In what direction does a low pressure system travel?

In a low pressure system winds travel in a counterclockwise direction and inward


Does it move from an area of high pressure to low pressure or low pressure to high pressure?

A fluid will move from high pressure to low pressure.


Which map view best shows the movement of surface air around a low-pressure system in the Northern Hemisphere?

low pressure, counter-clockwise, inward


Why does the eye of a cyclone get smaller as the cyclone get bigger?

It's not necessarily that the eye gets smaller as the cyclone gets bigger so much as the eye gets bigger when the cyclone gets stronger. There is no direct correlation between the size of a cyclone and its intensity. All cyclones are low pressure systems. The lower the pressure, the stronger the cyclone. The eye wall, which immediately surrounds the eye, marks the point where the inward force of the low pressure is balanced with the tendency for air to get flung outward by the rotation. A lower pressure means a stronger inward pull and thus a smaller eye.


How are tornadoes related to air pressure?

Tornadoes produce very low pressure at their centers. It is this low pressure that pulls air inward and allows it to stay in the circulation at high speed once it enters.


How does air pressure help create a cyclone?

A cyclone is a low pressure system. The low pressure draws air inward while the Coriolis effect causes the inflowing air to set the system rotating.


How are vacuums and tornado alike?

Both a tornado and a vacuum generate low pressure that draws air inward.


How does a tornado use air pressure?

The low pressure inside a tornado draws air inward, accelerating it to great speeds. Once air is in the circulation the low pressure at the center keeps it on a somewhat circular path.
