Why are large amounts of oxygen often transported as a liquid at low temperature?
The volume is lower and the transport easier.
Why did Hurricane Sandy need a low air pressure to form?
All large scale storm systems on earth have low pressure. The low pressure pulls in air that can act a fuel for the storm and creates a pressure gradient force that generates wind. Generally speaking, the lower the pressure in a storm, the stronger it is.
Is zinc bad for human health?
In large amounts zinc is toxic to humans, in trace amounts it is essential
Air moves from where pressure is higher to lower or lower to higher?
Higher to lower.
If you boil water at the top of a mountain would you expect it to boil at 100 degree Celsius explain?
Yes. In general, higher altitudes mean lower atmospheric pressure. Lower atmospheric pressure means lower boiling points.

The volume is lower and the transport easier.
What is the energy source for most wind?
The energy source is the Sun. The heat from the Sun warms the air in some places more than others. Areas with warmer air have lower pressure, and because fluids (gases and liquids) always move toward lower pressure, large amounts of higher pressure, cooler air move toward areas with lower pressure, warmer air. Also, the Earth's rotation causes the Coriolis Effect, which determines the directions of many of the world's prevailing (general) wind patterns.
What are the best methods to lower blood pressure?
Blood pressure can easily be lowered by reducing your salt intake. Avoid salty, premade soups, excessively large bags of chips, salted pretzels, and other food items that contain unnatural amounts of salt. Another great solution to lower blood pressure is to reduce stress by meditating, leaving friends who give you nothing but stress, and getting healthy by working out and eating right.
How do pressure belts affect climate?
Pressure belts affect climate by controlling where weather fronts travel. If a large area of high pressure is present, it will prevent a lower pressure system from entering and divert it.
How does strong wind occur?
Strong winds occur when there is a steep gradient in air pressure, i.e. if the difference in air pressure is large, the air moves from the area of higher pressure to the area of lower pressure at a considerable rate, or velocity.
Which outcome of the expansion project would have the most negative effect on the Lower Potomac Watershed?
Large amounts of oil-contaminated run-off flows into the watershed
What can you do to lower your risk of getting diabetes?
Type 1: Nothing. Type 2: Keep your weight down, exercise and do not eat large amounts of sugar and carbs.
Where water boils first in lower pressure or high atmospheric pressure?
in Lower pressure water does not have to get as hot to boil
Why should skis have a large surface area?
I believe it has something to do with the large surface area resulting in lower pressure on the snow (or whatever your skiing on, if not snow) so you don't fall into the snow.
Does drinking diet Pepsi lower your blood pressure?
No. You lower blood pressure by proper diet and exercise. Some people take medication to lower their blood pressure.
Can cassical music lower blood pressure?
In a way it can, because if it relaxes you your blood pressure will lower.
What is used to lower the lenses on a microscope?
