The psychrometer is a device used to measure the
Relative Humidity (RH) of the air.
Relative humidity is the ratio of
(the amount of moisture in the air, here and now)
to
(the amount of moisture the air could hold at this temperature) .
Being a ratio, it has no units. It's just a naked number, always
less than ' 1 ', and usually expressed as a percent.
As the spacing between isobars increases, the horizontal pressure gradient force and wind speed decrease.
The closer the spacing of isobars, the stronger is the strain gra- dient force. The stronger the stress gradient pressure, the stronger is the wind. thus, intently spaced isobars mean strong winds; extensively spaced isobars imply lighter wind.
The relationship between isobar spacing and wind velocity is that the closer the isobar spacing then the stronger the wind velocity. The spacing among isobars represents a stress differential among those two isobars. when two isobars are nearer together then the stress changes at a greater rate over distance.
The lines around high and low strain on a climate map are called isobars, or lines of equal stress, as shown in the above image on the left. While isobars are near together it is very windy; while they are further aside, conditions are more calm. The wind around highs usually blows in a clockwise direction.

Its B. Cooling molten lava or magma
Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
What can scientists learn from magnetic striping patterns? Select the three correct answers.
1. the cause of magnetic pole reversals
2. the year the next magnetic reversal will take place
3. the location of ancient faults caused by seismic activity
4. the exact location of the next earthquake along the California coast
5. the direction plates are moving relative to each other
6. the speed of one plate as it subducts below another plate
Answer:
The direction plates are moving relative to each other
The speed of one plate as it subducts below another plate
The location of ancient faults caused by seismic activity
Explanation:
Magnetic striping patterns are very valuable systems for understanding the factors that promote polar variability of the ocean floor. This is because these systems are formed exactly by changes in this polarity, presenting lines (similar to a zebra), which allow scientists to interpret them and have valuable information about the movement of the direction plates towards each other, the speed that a plate reaches the subduz below another plate and the location and old faults that were caused by the existence of seismic activities.
The false statement is - B. This map projection does not distort shapes.
The map shown on the image is a Mollweide projection map. This is a map that has an elliptical shape, unlike most of the maps that have a rectangular shape. It is a map that pretty accurately manages to depict the Earth's continents with their right sizes.
Unfortunately, it can not be said that the map is without flaws. It is a map that has distortions, as all the others do, but it is still a map where the distortions are very small, thus the depiction is much accurate than on most of the other map projections.
