GEOL 1304 Lecture Notes - Lecture 6: Atmospheric Pressure, Coriolis Force, Wind Speed
Document Summary
Isobar are the lines high low imperativeness sea level pressure sensation 1013. 25 mb. Rising strain low pressure on surface sinking air high pressure on surface. Pressure gradient strength causes con dential information to bsir david alexander cecil low from. High low pressure 90 degree angle to isobars stronger pressure gradient stronger wind speed. Coriolis force out apparent de ection of moving physical object due to the earth"s rotation (w e spin) affects only the focal point of movement digression is to the right in new hampshire to the leave in sh. Role of latitude wind speed the higher you go in latitude the more de ection slower moving object = less result faster moving object = more effect. Gravity pressure gradient force out coriolis force friction force. Temperature inversely related to force per unit area and density. High temperature (hot) sir david alexander cecil low p ressure low temperature (cold) high.
