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.)

(2) (a) you have a simple circuit that consists of only a battery (δvbat=1.5v) and two resistors with resistance r1=10ω and r2=5ω, connected in series with each other. what is the current running through the battery? (b) you re-arrange your circuit so now r2 is attached in parallel to r1 rather than in series. what is the current running through the battery? (c) you add an additional resistor r3=7ω on the same branch as r2. what is the current running through the battery? (d) what is the power dissipated in r3?

The california mussel (mytilus californianus) attaches itself to a rock or other solid surface with a bundle of filaments known as the byssus. imagine that 15.0 j of work is done to stretch the distal end of the byssus. it releases 10.8 j of thermal energy as it relaxes. what is the resilience of the distal end of the byssus?
