Is an isobar line that connects places that have the same air temperature?

No, an isobar line connects places that have the same atmospheric pressure. Isotherm lines, on the other hand, connect places with the same air temperature.


Who Discovered Isobars In Chemistry and Isobar Definition?

Isobars are a point or line drawn on map that connects the places of constant pressure e.g, atmospheric pressure or sea level.

What makes wind happen?

Atmospheric pressure creates winds. Air moves to places with low pressure from places with high pressure. When air moves it creates wind.

How do you know if the air pressure is the same or different in different places?

Atmospheric pressure is measured by weather stations in many areas, using devices called barometers to monitor the changing pressure. Air pressure varies within weather systems and by altitude (elevation).


What are rthe lines which adjoin different places with same pressure?

Isobar (meteorology), a line connecting points of equal atmospheric pressure..


Is joning lines in a weather map that have the same temperature called isobars?

An isotherm is a type of contour line or surface on a map that connects points of equal temperature.An isobar refers to a line drawn through all points of equal atmospheric pressure along a given reference surface.


Which of the following places has the highest atmospheric pressure?

The lowest level of the deepest mine (In South Africa), will have the highest atmospheric pressure. But because of the forced ventilation and cooling systems needed, the air pressure at the lowest levels of the mine will not represent natural atmospheric pressures. [unless the ventilation systems fail!}


What is a temperature line called?

A line on a weather map that connects places where the temperature is the same is called an isotherm.


Why does atmospheric pressure start to decrease around midnight when with the temperature decrease pressure should increase?

The reason for temperature being lower in high altitude regions (as compared to places at sea-level) is due to the decrease in atmospheric pressure as we go up in altitude. So decrease in atmospheric pressure causes the temperature to decrease, which might be a reason for the decreased pressure at night. --- Diurnal temperature fluctuations vary by location, but follow a twice-daily cycle of general rise and fall, corresponding to the "atmospheric tide" induced by the eastward rotation of the planet.
