From what pressure to what pressure does the global wind go?
Wind is created by air pressure, there's a law in meteorology, winds will usually blow from high pressure areas to low pressure areas. That's what this question would be asking for.
What is the movement of air from high-pressure areas to low-pressure areas?
density
Does air flow from areas of higher pressure to areas of lower pressure?
Air will flow from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure. Pressure = force/area. So in this context, air pressure is the force the particles in that area exert on the space around them (let's imagine they're in a box). As air particles whizz around, they will collide with the edges of the box, so bouncing off and changing direction. This direction change involves a lot of acceleration (though speed may be the same, velocity (which is speed in a specific DIRECTION) will be very different. Physics tells us F=MA. Therefore, this acceleration will equate to a force on the outside world. This force will therefore be proportional to the number of particles in the area (more particles = more area). So, if an area of high pressure has lots of particles, there will be a spreading out of these particles to areas of low particles (diffusion, and energy's natural tendency to spread out). Alternatively, think of it as particles in the high pressure area pushing against the particles from the low area, and they're pushing force being greater, so they win! There you have a very long winded answer for why air moves from high pressure to low pressure!
A pump is not used to raise groundwater to the surface in areas where artesian wells are located becasue the water in artesian wells is?
under high pressure
What is the polar easterlies?
The Polar Easterlies are dry prevailing winds that blow from high pressure areas in the north and south poles. These winds are also called Polar Hadley cells.
Cyclonic low pressure storms of high winds that develop over water are called?
hurricanes
Where do Tornadoes and hurricanes develop over high or low pressure?
Both tornadoes and hurricanes are associated with low pressure; nearly all stormy weather is.
Areas that are warmer have what kind of pressure?
They can have high or low pressure. Low pressure is caused by wind variances in the troposphere and that can occur anywhere. You'll notice that warmer tropical areas have more hurricanes. Hurricanes are low pressure systems.
Do hurricanes form when there is high pressure or low pressure?
Hurricanes form in areas of low pressure. As warm, moist air rises and cools in the atmosphere, it creates a region of lower pressure at the surface. This allows more air to be drawn into the system, which can then develop into a hurricane.
What is the name of the breeze that will develop between the High Pressure and Low Pressure areas?
wind!!
Does a high pressure system or low pressure system attract hurricanes?
Hurricanes are typically attracted to areas of low pressure rather than high pressure systems. Low pressure systems provide the ideal conditions for the development and intensification of hurricanes due to the rising warm, moist air that fuels their formation.
Can you tell if hurricanes are going to happen?
Yes. Meteorologists monitor the tropics for weather patterns that may become hurricanes. Specifically, they look for low-pressure areas called tropical disturbances. If conditions are favorable, with high humidity, warm ocean water, and little or no wind shear, these disturbances may develop into hurricanes.
Are hurricanes low pressure or high pressure?
Hurricanes are characterized by a low-pressure system at their center. The low pressure at the core of a hurricane is what drives the strong winds and circulation of air around the storm.
Cyclonic low-pressure storms of high winds that develop over water are called?
hurricanes
Is hurricane Isaac low pressure or high pressure?
All hurricanes are low-pressure systems.
How is high pressure related to hurricanes?
Hurricanes themselves are low pressure systems, however, that paths of many hurricanes are influenced by the Azores High, a semi-permanent high pressure system over the Atlantic. The clockwise circulation of air causes amny hurricanes to start travelling west and then to turn north, often steering them into the Caribbean islands or the United States.
How does air move from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure?
Air moves from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure due to the pressure difference created by the uneven heating of the Earth's surface. This pressure difference causes air to flow from high pressure areas to low pressure areas, creating wind.
