The low pressure inside the hurricane is what ultimately produces it. The low pressure in a hurricane pulls air inward. As this air converges it is then force upward. There it becomes warmer than its surroundings and rises due to its own buoyancy.

Why do winds spiral towards the center of the hurricane?

Winds move toward the center of a hurricane because of the low pressure generated by the upward motion of the air inside it.


How do tornadoes suck stuff up?

The convection of relatively warm air creates a circular, upward movement, causing a low pressure zone (partial vacuum). Air moves from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure, like the center of the hurricane.


What happens when the center of gravity is behind the center of pressure?

With the CG ahead of CP (aka CL), the downward force on the tail creates an upward pitching moment which is opposite of the downward pitching moment caused by the upward force at the CP--these are stabilizing forces. But notice what happens when the CG is behind the CP--both forces now create an upward pitching moment around the CG but there is no counterbalancing downward pitching moment created to stabilize the aircraft.


Why does a tornado cause low pressure areas?

Air in a tornado is rapidly drawn upward. This creates low pressure as more air rushes in to replace it. However this can ever completely fill the pressure deficit until the upward movement stops.


How does ship stay afloat?

The ship floats because of its large volume which displaces an amount of water that is more than its weight. That creates an upward force called buoyant force which keeps the ship on the surface.


When warm air moves upward in a thunderhead it creates a zone of what?

warm air


Mercury has its meniscus upward?

due to surface tension


What creates plateaus?

There are a few different ways that plateaus can be formed. One way is erosion by water. Another is erosion by glaciers. Magma swelling to the Earth's surface and pushing the crust upward is a third way they can be formed.


Why do wings keep a plane in the air?

As the plane flies through the air, the upper surface of the wing, or aerofoil, is so curved that it creates higher air speed and lower pressure. In other words this lower pressure gives an upwars"lift" to the aerofoil, wheras the air rushing under the aerofoil creates higher air pressure giving an upward "push" to the aerofoil. So both surfaces create upward forces.


When warm air moves upward in a thunderhead it creates a zone of?

Warm moist air over the equator creates a zone of convection.


What is the upward force exerted on a body by that into which it is immersed?

When a body is immersed in water , due to pressure difference between upper surface and lower surface of the body an unbalanced upward force acts on a body . This unbalanced upward force is called Buoyancy force


Can mountains form from level surface and move upward?

yes
