1. The pressure announced on last night’s television weather broadcast was 29.92. Explain how this was measured and give the units. Would this be considered an unusually large or low pressure value? A pressure announced on the weather forecast of 29.92 is an average measurement. It is measured with a barometer and in the United States the units of measure are inches of mercury‚ or inHg. This is what meteorologist are referring to in their forecasts. 29.92 inHg is a measurement within the normal

Today about 4 million visitors come to the Grand Canyon each year. Seeing the Grand Canyon is always a breathtaking and unforgettable experience. Tornadoes A tornado is a very powerful column of winds which spirals around a center of low atmospheric pressure. It is one of the most destructive storms on earth. A tornado is also called a waterspout. A tornado is a long cloud which comes down from the sky. It is shaped like a funnel and consists of wind which whirls around and around extremely fast

winds (gusts ofover 300 kilometres per hour have been recorded)‚torrential rain (1800 millimetres in 24 hours havebeen recorded) and very rough seas. A storm surge can occur when a tropicalcyclone approaches or crosses a coastline. Thevery low atmospheric pressure and the stress ofstrong winds on the sea surface produce a rise insea level above the normal tide level (see the diagram). Among the destructive and death-dealingfeatures of tropical cyclones‚ sea action and¯oods are ranked as more signi®cant

Peer pressure‚ it has been questioned alot. Students are pressured to do good in school‚ they are also pressured by their family. So‚ children are pressured to grow up too fast‚ by many ways; Such as‚ pushed by their parents to get good grades‚ teens get pressured by a tradition to a college that was carried onto the families by generation and the pressures to get a job. Therefore‚ there are multiple ways teens can get pressured by family to do things. Teens are the future. They have to learn many

The main purpose is to analyze scientific works by other researchers that the researchers used for investigation critically. It is also secondary sources‚ and as such‚ do not report any new or original experimental work. Basically this part of the study focuses on the foreign and local types of water level monitoring system and also the articles involved and necessary

overall purpose of the experiment is to observe the change of pressure as three different gases; N2‚ He‚ and an unknown gas effuses through a pinhole into a vacuum environment. Each gas has a different pattern of changing the pressure depending on its molecular mass‚ which is related to the kinetic theory of gases‚ where heavier gases (N2) effuse slower than lighter gases (He). The experiment setup was prepared‚ measurement of change of pressure as a function of time were recorded. After performing two
