Question 1173Navigation General

The correct answer is D) the greater the force of the wind will be. The pressure difference between a high and a low pressure center is the driving force behind wind. The greater the pressure difference, the stronger the resulting wind will be as air flows from the high pressure to the low pressure area. This is due to the principle of Bernoulli's Principle, which states that as the speed of a fluid (in this case, air) increases, the pressure within that fluid decreases. The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not directly relate to the pressure difference between high and low pressure systems. The temperature and dryness of the air mass are not directly determined by the pressure difference alone.
