What is the difference between a high pressure geyser and a low pressure geyser?

A low pressure system is a weather system surrounding an area of low pressure (low mass of air above) that is surrounded by air moving inwards and counter-clockwise. Low pressure systems are usually characterized by clouds and precipitation. High pressure systems are the opposite. Air flow is outwards and clockwise and usually clear weather.

∙ 12y agoLow air pressure is when there is less air pressure. It's usually when you get rain or cold weather that you have low air pressure. High air pressure is when there is more. This usually results in sunny warm weather. An easy way to remember is the H and the L. High air pressure equalls happy weather. Low air pressure equals lousy weather.

∙ 11y agoIn a high pressure system there is high pressure, and in a low pressure system there is less pressure than the high pressure system. High pressure system, often called anticyclones, generally bring calm, clear weather. When parked in the same place for a long time they can bring long spells of hot or cold weather as well a drought. High pressure system rotate clockwise in the northern hemisphere and counterclockwise in the Southern Hemisphere.
Low pressure systems, sometimes called cyclones often bring clouds, precipitation such as rain or snow, and sometimes storms. Strong low pressure systems, particularly tropical cyclones (hurricanes, typhoons, etc) can be dangerous. Many other extreme weather events such as tornado outbreaks and blizzards are usually associated with low pressure systems. Low pressure systems in the northern hemisphere rotate counterclockwise while those in the southern hemisphere rotate clockwise.

∙ 11y agoAn important characteristic of the Earth's atmosphere is its pressure as it often determines wind and weather patterns across the globe. By definition, atmospheric or air pressure is the force per unit of area exerted on the Earth's surface by the weight of the air above the surface. The force exerted by an air mass is created by the molecules that make it up and their size, motion, and number present in the air. These are important factors because they determine the temperature and density of the air and thus its pressure.

Semi high pressure is 200 and 300kpa and high pressure is 400 and 600kpa.

∙ 11y agothe high pressure pump releases or pumps water or whatever substance you are using out faster and at a hight pressure and with more power. And the low pressure pump is not as powerful

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.
Why is it often very windy the day after a storm or heavy rain?
Because a deep area of low pressure is often what brings that weather, and in departing it typically allows an area of high pressure to slide in behind it. It is this pressure difference (between high and low) that causes strong wind.
Whats the difference between Wind and breeze?
Breeze is a slight wind that is usually caused by either a mountain or pool of water. Wind refers to air moving from a high pressure to low pressure.
What is the difference between low pressure gradient and high pressure gradient system?
A low pressure gradient is a state where the difference in the fluid density between one side of a divider is close to the fluid density of the other side. A high pressure gradient is a state where the difference in the fluid density between one side of the divider is very different to the fluid denisity of the other. For instance, a cell wall is permiable and allows some matter to migrate across the barrier through diffusion. If your blood fluid is carrying a small amount of salt compared to a high salt content on the interior of the cell, there is a high pressure gradient between the two fluid medium. The cell will swell and diffusion will try to balance the salt content from one side of the cell wall to the other by migrating fresh water into the cell and migrating salt to the outside.
The relationship between air and wind?
both have high and low pressure both have high and low pressure are factors in weather
How do you balance the pressure of your geyser?
The pressure of a geyser can be altered from its controls. High pressure can be selected if someone wants the water jets to rise higher.
How long does it take to get hot water out of your hot tap and how much water does it use to achieve that?
There is no "one" specific answer to this as it depends if it comes from an "on demand geyser", "gravity fed geyser" or "high pressure geyser" and the distance between the geyser and the tap
What is difference between high pressure liquid chromatography and high performance lequid chromatography?
there is no difference between high pressure and performance chromatography
What is the difference between high pressure low pressure sodium lamps?
the pressure ;)
What is the difference between air in H and L?
Air in the H (high) pressure system is denser and sinks, leading to stable weather conditions with clear skies. In contrast, air in the L (low) pressure system is lighter and rises, leading to unstable weather conditions with clouds, precipitation, and potentially storms.
What is the difference between high blood pressure and hypertension BTW high blood pressure?
High Blood Pressure and Hypertension are the same thing
What is the difference between older and younger peoples blood pressure?
Basic Difference younger people blood pressure- High. older people blood pressure -Low.
What is the difference between high and low pressure mercury lamps?
how are low pressure mercury lights made and how do they operate?
How do you know the difference between the high pressure power steering line and the low pressure line on a 1998 Mercury Mountaineer?
High pressure line gets very hot.
What is the difference between a high-pressure system and A low 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 the difference between high-pressure system and a low-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.
