THAT QUESTION - If an area of HIGH pressure were located to the EAST of West Chester, what would be our surface wind direction?

sergij07 [2.7K]

If an area of HIGH pressure were located to the EAST of West Chester, our surface wind direction would be - south.

Explanation:

A system of high pressure contains pressure to be very higher at the center of the area than the other areas around it. The blowing of wind wind takes off the high pressure built in an area. An anticyclonic flow occurs when the system high pressure winds blows in a direction that is opposite to the system of low pressure winds.

It blows in the clockwise direction in the northern side of the equator and anticlockwise in southern side of equator. The direction of surface wind will be opposite in the low pressure systems. Thus, if a high pressure exist in an area then the direction of surface wind will be opposite direction.

The mean is most likely exactly 27.5 pounds, is true about the given statement The median weight of a checked bag is 27.5 pounds.

Explanation:

Median weight of a checked bag is= 27.5 pounds

it means , if there are n bags , the middlemost bag has weight 27. 5 pounds.

For , a data set, if it is symmetrical on both sides that is if difference between two succeeding values are same,then

Median = Mean

Otherwise , in some cases

Either, Median > Mean or Mean > Median.

Supposing each bag to be Equivalent, that is if they have equal weight,

Mean can't exceed ≥ 27.5 Pounds
