Do the winds in a northern hemisphere cyclone spiral counterclockwise away or toward its center?
Toward the center. The low pressure sucks air inward.
How do air masses interact to form a cyclone?
Air moves in a spiraling pattern from centers of high pressure toward centers of low pressure.
Pressure increases with depth toward the center of the earth in which layer would you expect pressure to be the greatest?
At the very center.
What has strata on both limbs dipping inward toward the axis?
A FOLD has a strata on both limbs dipping inward toward the axis.
How are winds affected by areas of high pressure?
In zones where air ascends, the air is less dense than its surroundings and this creates a center of low pressure. Winds blow from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure, and so the surface winds would tend to blow toward a low pressure center. In zones where air descends back to the surface, the air is more dense than its surroundings and this creates a center of high atmospheric pressure. Since winds blow from areas ofhigh pressureto areas oflow pressure, winds spiral outward away from the high pressure. The Coriolis Effect deflects air toward the right in the northern hemisphere and creates a general clockwise rotation around the high pressure center. In the southern hemisphere the effect is just the opposite, and winds circulate in a counterclockwise rotation about the high pressure center. Such winds circulating around a high pressure center are calledanticyclonic windsand around a low pressure area they are calledcyclonic winds.

When you are driving in a car and turn a corner centripetal force pushes?
... you inward toward the center of the turn.

At the very center.
How does the pressure change as you go from the toward the center of earth?
The pressure gets more dence
What happens to the pressure as you travel toward the center of the earth?
pressure increases and "bunches up"
What best describes the pressure in a middle-latitude cyclone?
Pressure decreases toward the center
What best describes the pressure in a middle -latitude cyclone?
Pressure decreases toward the center
Does wind moves rapidly toward a high pressure center?
No. Winds move away from a high pressure center and towards a low pressure center. You can think of it as the low pressure sucking the air in.
Witch way should a tattoo face?
Forward if on the legs, arms, or torso. Inward (toward center of body) if on the chest or back.
