Question

The atmospheric pressure increases
during cold weather and decreases
during hot weather. Justity the
statement​

Answer 1

Answer:

Since Cold air is more dense than relatively warm air, it has a tendency to sink, relatively, and thus has a higher pressure than warm air. From this, it can be gleaned that the winter months would have an higher average atmospheric pressure than in the summer. Air density plays a role in the correlation between temperature and pressure because warmer air is less dense than cool air, allowing molecules to have more space to collide with greater force. In cooler air, the molecules are closer together. The proximity results in collisions with less force and lower air pressure.
