Gce Model Questions Vol1 2019 Geography Question 26
Practice objective / multiple choice question 26 from the 2019 Gce Model Questions Vol1 Geography examination.
The synoptic chart shows a low pressure centre of 1000 hPa and a high pressure centre of 1025 hPa. Isobars are drawn 4 hPa apart, and the distance between successive isobars is 50 km. The chart follows the Northern Hemisphere convention (wind blows parallel to isobars with low pressure to the left). Point X is located east of the low and north of the high. Determine the wind direction at point X (state the direction from which the wind blows) and calculate the magnitude of the pressure‑gradient force per unit mass at X, expressing your answer in N kg(^{-1}) and as a percentage of the standard value 1 N kg(^{-1}).
