Q: air diverges in a low-pressure system. True or False?

A: low pressure means pressure due to air is low at that place.

Q: Using the terms pressure gradient and Coriolis be able to explain or draw the direction of wind…

A: The wind is generated due to uneven heating of Earth, and once generated the movement of the wind…

Q: why does air sink at 30 latitude?

A: The Sun heats the Earth more at the equator than at the poles. The air along the equator gets heated…

Q: QUESTION Why does air pressure decrease with increasing altitude? (Select all that apply.) Less air…

A: The air pressure decrease with increasing altitude as less air above pushes down and the weight of…

Q: Define streamline flow.

A: the flow of fluid can be represented by stramlines or lines which follows the path of fluid motion.

Q: a) What is the dynamical quantity known as potential vorticity? b) What are the three components of…
