The thing that is low pressure is air.
When a meteorologist says that there is an area of "Low Pressure" he is saying that there is a low air pressure in an area or, more exactly, that there is less air per cubic unit than there is in surrounding areas.
So, if neutrally pressured air met with low pressured air the neutrally pressured or comparatively condensed air, a.k.a "high pressure" air would fall downward until it reached a state of equilibrium. And attaining equilibrium by both mixing with the surrounding air and falling to an altitude of similar air pressure.
Lower pressure results in less ability to hold moisture. The result is usually clouds and possible precipitation if the subject is weather. If the subject is related to Boyle's law then lower pressure causes a reduction in temperature.
it pushes down on the surface, if itw over water it causes waves
The air moves toward the area of low pressure
Air will always flow from a high-pressure area to a low-pressure area. This can be felt - in the form of winds.
When area of contact increases between two objects, then the pressure applied decreases. Here is the formula: Pressure(Pascals)=Force(newtons)/area(metre2)
if force increaces and area stays the same then pressure
It is all to do with air pressure. We lower the air pressure inside the straw by sucking the air out of it, atmospheric pressure which is pushing down on the surface of the drink literally forces it up the straw into our mouth.
Pressure
Pressure is shown with white curvy lines. The closer the lines are to each other in a certain area, the higher the pressure is. The farter apart they are, the lower the pressure is in that area.
It will fill the area of lower pressure, expanding and slightly cooling until the pressure of the area and it's surrounding are equal.
Air flows from higher pressure to lower pressure, creating winds as it moves to balance out the pressure difference. This movement of air is known as wind, and it is responsible for weather patterns and changes in the atmosphere.
Wind happens when there is a change in pressure in the atmosphere which causes air to rush to the lower pressure area, thus causing wind.
pressure = force / area Therefore pressure and force are directly proportional, meaning... The greater the force the greater the pressure and the lower the force the lower the pressure
The movement of gas through a small hole into an area of lower pressure is diffusion.
Yes. Everything "flows downhill" in that sense, going toward the lower pressure, temperature, concentration, energy level, etc.
a-plus a low pressure system
Yes the altitude of the area does affect the breathing rate becaue the higher you go the lower the air pressure and the the lower you go the lower the air pressure.
It will always move from an area of higher pressure to an area of lower pressure.
Along Coastlines, warmer air relates to lower air pressure, thus air flows from the higher-pressure, cooler setting into the area of lower air pressure. If the land is warmer, it has lower air pressure. Air over the sea would therefore be cooler and thus have higher atmospheric pressure, and the air will naturally from from the higher pressure (in this case, from over the ocean) to the lower pressure (over the warmer land).So you get a wind from the water onto the land, or a sea breeze.
The movement of air from an area of higher pressure to one of lower pressure
the surface area decreases.
