<h2>Answer:</h2>

b) Stationary fronts usually are associated with light precipitation and light cloud cover.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Stationary fronts occur due to a barrier dividing warm and cold air without one displacing the other. There is a slight movement of either the cold or warm air, moreover, at the barrier, fog and light clouds form seeding light rain or snow.

The stationary front may last for days unless the direction of the air changes causing the movement to either cause a cold or warm front or break the front. The boundary created by this phenomenon results in different temperatures and wind on either side of the front.

faust18 [17]

Answer:

The pressure at the top of Pikes Peak is much lower (only about 60% that at sea level).

Explanation:

Atmospheric pressure decreases with altitude. The higher a location is in the mountains, the lower the atmospheric pressure will be. Pressure continues to decrease until the boundary with outer space where there is no air pressure at all and the atmosphere officially ends. Mountain climbers that scale the highest peaks in the world must bring oxygen tanks because of the scarcity of air at the roof of the world.
