Question

) What is the difference between steep pressure gradient and gentle
pressure gradient with regard to distance between isobars?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

I will use the example of the isobars on a synoptic map; the lines of equal atmospheric pressure. Those are gradients. In fact, the force that makes the air move from a high pressure to a low one is called the gradient force.

If the lines are far apart, as it is usually in a high pressure zone, it can be called "gentle gradients." If they are very tight, as it is in a deep low pressure, then it can be called "steep gradients."
