Isobar Data
Add the data to the isobar map and use that data to answer the questions.

1. Label high-pressure areas with the letter H.

2. Label low-pressure areas with the letter L.

3. Over which area(s) would you expect to see rain or snow?

4. Over which area(s) would you expect to see clear skies?

In the northern hemisphere, the wind blows clockwise around centers of high pressure. The wind blows counterclockwise around lows. It is the opposite in the southern hemisphere.

5. Draw arrows around the H on the map to show the wind direction.

6. Draw arrows around the L on the map to show the wind direction.

7. Imagine that you live in Maine. Currently there is a high-pressure area over Maine. If a low-pressure area moves in, how will the direction of the wind change?

8. Imagine that you live in Colorado. Currently there is a low-pressure area over Colorado. If a high-pressure area moves in, how will the direction of the wind change?

9. According to the map, where would the strongest winds be expected? (Refer to the lesson if needed.)

Your starship, the aimless wanderer, lands on the mysterious planet mongo. as chief scientist-engineer, you make the following measurements: a 2.50-kg stone thrown upward from the ground at 14.0 m/s returns to the ground in 5.70 s ; the circumference of mongo at the equator is 2.20×10^5 km ; and there is no appreciable atmosphere on mongo. (a) the starship commander, captain confusion, asks for the following information: what is the mass of mongo? (b) if the aimless wanderer goes into a circular orbit 2.20×10^4 km above the surface of mongo, how many hours will it take the ship to complete one orbit? (c) an unmanned spacecraft is in a circular orbit around the moon, observing the lunar surface from an altitude of 44.0 km . to the dismay of scientists on earth, an electrical fault causes an on-board thruster to fire, decreasing the speed of the spacecraft by 23.0 m/s . if nothing is done to correct its orbit, with what speed (in km/h) will the spacecraft crash into the lunar surface?
