Q

High pressure

A

clear skies,dry sinking air, clock wise

22
Q

Low Pressure

A

cloudy and stormy skies, moist rising air, counter clockwise

23
Q

cold front

A

rapidly cold runs into slow warm air, it causes clouds rain snow and thunder storms

24
Q

Warm front

A

warm air overtakes slow moving cold air, causes (if the air is humid) rain or snow long and containous, (if the air is dry) scattered clouds followed by warm weather

25
Q

Stationary front

A

cold and warm air masses meet but neither can move the other, causes rain,snow,fog,clouds

26
Q

Occluded

A

a warm air masses is caught between 2 cooler masses, causes rain and snow, after is passes cool,clear weather

27
Q

Physical Change

A

texture,shape,temp,state of matter

28
Q

Chemical Change

A

change in temp, unexpected color change,formation of gas, change in odor,formation of precipitate (solid), fire burning, light produced
