When limestone is exposed to intense heat and pressure it becomes what metamorphic rock?
Marble.
What happens to pressure and isobars in cyclones and in anticyclones?
The isobars become concentric and sometimes, especially in cyclones, tightly packed with low pressure in the cyclones and high pressure in the anticyclones. In the more intense systems the isobars may be almost perfectly circular.
What does intensive mean in chemistry?
if comething in chemistry becomes intensive then it means it is becomes intense and exciting.
Does atmospheric pressure affect tornadoes?
Yes. Tornadoes themselves are small, intense centers of low pressure.
What was the most intense hurricane as measured by air pressure to form in the Atlantic basin what year did this occur?
The most intense Atlantic hurricane on record was Hurricane Wilma of 2005 with a minimum central pressure of 882 millibars.
What are two characteristics of tornadoes?
Two characteristics of tornadoes are violently rotating winds and intense low pressure.
When limestone is exposed to intense heat and pressure it becomes what metamorphic rock?
Marble.
What happens to igneous rock in intense heat and pressure?
The rock becomes a metamorphic rock
How do changes in pressure affect tornadoes?
The storms that spawn tornadoes usually occur with low-pressure systems that are hundreds of miles across. Tornadoes themselves are centers of intense low pressure. The lower the pressure is inside the tornado compared to its surroundings, the stronger the tornado becomes.
What type of rock produced by intense heat and pressure?
Metamorphic rocks are produced by intense heat and pressure on pre-existing rocks.
What happens to pressure and isobars in cyclones and in anticyclones?
The isobars become concentric and sometimes, especially in cyclones, tightly packed with low pressure in the cyclones and high pressure in the anticyclones. In the more intense systems the isobars may be almost perfectly circular.
What does intensive mean in chemistry?
if comething in chemistry becomes intensive then it means it is becomes intense and exciting.
What factors contribute to metamorphism?
Intense Heat and Pressure.
What is similar about the air pressure in a hurricane and a tornado?
Both produce intense low pressure.
What type of pressure is in the center of a tornado?
The center of a tornado is an area of intense low pressure.
What are two agents of metamorphism?
Heat, Pressure, and Chemically active fluids.
How does low pressure affect hurricanes?
A hurricane is an intense low pressure system. The lower the pressure, the stronger the hurricane.
