They're technically neither...A warm front is just a band of warmer air moving into a cooler airmass.

Pressure differences between warm and cold air masses cause what?

Pressure differences between warm and cold air masses cause fronts or high/low pressure systems. A warm front is when a warm, moist air mass slides up and over a cold air mass, and a cold front is the opposite.


What is the similarities between high end low pressure?

what are the similarities between high and low pressure


Are pressure and vacuum inversely proportional or directly?

I am not sure if they are proportional, but they are inversely related. High pressure makes a low vacuum, and low pressure makes a high vacuum.


What does on refrigerator High side 240 Low Side 110 mean?

A refrigerator is basically an air conditioning system. There is a high (discharge) and a low (vacuum) side to such systems. As it goes through the system, the refrigerant will change state (e.g., high pressure vapor to high pressure liquid, high pressure liquid to low pressure liquid, low pressure liquid to low pressure vapor, low pressure vapor back to high pressure vapor). This facilitates the absorption of heat from the refrigerator compartment and the exchange of that heat to the ambient air. What you're seeing there are the pressure readings (in psig) of the high pressure and low pressure sides of that system. Your refrigerator and an automotive AC system use different refrigerants, and thus have different system operating temperatures. While those numbers would be excessively high on an automotive system, I don't know if that's the case with a refrigerator. You'd need to inquire with a qualified service professional on the matter of what your refrigerator's operating pressures should be.

What are some fronts that are associated with thunderstorms?

How do fronts and low pressur help each other?

Low pressure centers attract fronts because the front (whether it be cold or warm) wants to move from an area of high pressure to an area of low pressure. This stabalizes the area.

Why Fronts form?

Fronts where high and low pressure systems meet for storms. In warm weather they form thunderstorms. In cold weather they can form snow storms.


What instrument measures warm fronts?

A barometer can be used to measure a warm front since it measures atmospheric pressure. Warm fronts lie within broad troughs of low pressure.

Cold fronts and warm fronts in the middle latitudes are often associated with what?

Cold fronts and warm fronts in the middle latitudes are often associated with low pressure. It is also associated with a middle latitude cyclone.


What is a stationary front an area of high or low pressure?

A stationary front would be associated with an area of low pressure (high pressure does not have fronts).

What is the zone where high pressure areas and low pressure areas meet?

The zone is called a front. There are a few types of fronts. They are: cold front, warm front, occluded front & stationary front.
