Correct!
Air spirals into the low in a counter-clockwise direction.
Air flows out of the low pressure in a clockwise direction
This is the best answer.
Question 4
0.34 / 0.34 pts
Air pressure increases with higher altitude.
Air pressure first decreases and then increases with higher altitude.
Correct!
Air pressure decreases with higher altitude
Air pressure first increases and then decreases with higher altitude
This is the best answer.
Where would you find convergence of air at the surface?
