Question

What is created by a large pressure difference in air fronts?

A. Density
B. Dewpoint
C. Wind
D. Isobars

Answer 1

Answer:

A. density.

Explanation:

At a front, the two air masses have different densities,

based on temperature, and do not easily mix. One air mass is lifted above the

other, creating a low pressure zone. If the lifted air is moist, there will be

condensation and precipitation. Winds are common at a front.

Answer 2

When the air reaches the ground, it creates a high pressure zone. Air flowing from areas of high pressure to low pressure creates winds. The greater the pressure difference between the pressure zones, the stronger the wind blows. Warm air can hold more moisture than cool air.
