What is an area of high pressure where air moves aparts and sinks?

An area of high pressure where the air moves apart and sinks is an anticyclone.


What moves from a high pressure area to a low pressure area?

Air.


Do clouds rise in the center of a low pressure or high pressure area?

Air rises in a low pressure area and sinks in a high pressure area.


When cold air moves into an area the atmospheric pressure is?

When cold air moves into an area, the atmospheric pressure is high because cold air is denser than warm air. When a cold front moves through an area, the pressure always rises.


Does the air in a high pressure area rise or fall?

The air in a high pressure area sinks due to the increased weight of the atmosphere pressing down on it. This sinking motion creates stable weather conditions with generally clear skies.


When air moves from an area of low pressure it causes?

When air moves from an area of low pressure, it causes wind to blow towards the area of higher pressure. This movement of air creates atmospheric circulation patterns that help balance out pressure differences in the atmosphere.


Does wind occurs as air moves from a place of low air pressure to a place of high air pressure?

Winds occur as air moves from high pressure to low pressure.Wind occurs as air moves from a place of low air pressure to a place of high air pressure is a true statement.


How does wind erosion occur?

"How" because wind is in a high pressure area looking for a low pressure area so that is how the wind moves. When it moves it is always picking up "trash"(small particles of sand and dirt).


In which direction does water move in a solution when there is a difference in osmotic pressure, from low to high?

In a solution with a difference in osmotic pressure, water moves from an area of low osmotic pressure to an area of high osmotic pressure.


Where does low pressured air move to?

Usually a low pressure area is where all the air moves to. A high pressure area is the one that will move- to try to balance the pressure differential.


What effect does cold air have on air pressure?

Cold air is denser than warm air, so it exerts a higher pressure. When cold air moves into an area, it can increase the air pressure in that location. Conversely, when warm air moves into an area, it can decrease the air pressure.


What is the movement of fluid down a pressure gardient called?

The movement of fluid down a pressure gradient is called flow. It occurs when a fluid moves from an area of high pressure to an area of low pressure in order to equalize the pressure difference.
