please improve Q. but if ur asking this, the air particles move in all directions, the more its under pressure, the more particles are moving.

Which direction does the wind blow in a low and a high pressure system?
It would blow from the mass of high pressure to the mass of low pressure.Answer 2Looking down from a satellite, the northern hemisphere high pressure systems move in a clockwise direction and anticlockwise in the southern hemisphere.Low pressure systems are the reverse of these, IE clockwise in the southern hemisphere and anticlockwise in the northern hemisphere.
Which direction does wind move?
Roughly from high pressure toward low pressure.
What characteristics do all sound waves have?
Sound waves are LONGITUDINAL. This means the direction of the particles is the same as the direction of the wave. Sound waves are a series of compressions (areas of high density) and rarefactions (areas of low pressure). All sound waves are caused by vibrations. They only travel if there is a medium for them to travel along, therefore there is no sound in space, or in a vacuum as it cannot travel.
Do sound waves travel in high pressure?
Yes, the travel in all sorts of pressures. The speed of sound is not greatly affected by pressure in an ideal gas.
What is air moving in a specific direction?
From areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure. Hope this helps! :)
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 direction do high and low pressure systems move and why?
Both types of systems move in the same direction depending on where you live. So these types of systems move along with the weather.
In what direction do high and low pressure areas travel in the US?
west to east in the US?
3 characteristics of a high pressure system?
In a high pressure system, air is sinking. Air spirals outwards in an anticlockwise direction. In a high pressure system, sinking air becomes warm and stable. High pressure systems usually cover a greater area than low pressure systems and move slower. If located over land, high pressure systems are usually cloud-free.
In the northern hemisphere high pressure systems rotate?
rotates in CL(Ck wise direction
Which direction does the wind blow in a low and a high pressure system?
It would blow from the mass of high pressure to the mass of low pressure.Answer 2Looking down from a satellite, the northern hemisphere high pressure systems move in a clockwise direction and anticlockwise in the southern hemisphere.Low pressure systems are the reverse of these, IE clockwise in the southern hemisphere and anticlockwise in the northern hemisphere.
Which Wind direction in a high pressure system in the southern hemisphere?
High pressure systems turn anti clockwise in the southern hemisphere and clockwise in the northern hemisphere
What are the characteristics of a low pressure system?
In a low pressure system, air is rising. Air spirals inwards in a clockwise direction. In a low pressure system, rising air cools and clouds begin to form. Low pressure systems usually cover a smaller area than high pressure systems and move faster. Low pressure systems are associated with high precipitation.
What is Buys Ballot's law?
The law states how the location of pressure systems can be deduced from the wind direction in the Northern Hemisphere. "If one stands with his back to the wind, atmospheric pressure is higher to his right and lower to his left" (restated: a high pressure system may be to your right, or a low pressure system to your left). This is because in the Northern Hemisphere, the rotation of high pressure systems is clockwise and in low pressure systems, it is counterclockwise.
Does a high-pressure system have a low-pressure or high-pressure center?
A high pressure systems has a high pressure center.
How do storms differ in low pressure and high pressure systems?
There are no storms in high pressure systems. That's where the clear skies are.
What are high pressure systems usually not associated with?
High pressure systems are usually not associated with changeable weather.
