Question

Which term does not describe the surface air movement of a Northern Hemisphere low-pressure system?

a) Divergent
b) Net upward movement
c) Inward
d) Counterclockwise

Answer 1

A) Divergent

Yeah... That should be the answer

Answer 2

Option (A)

Step-by-step explanation:

The air forming in the Northern hemisphere has the following characteristics such as-

• In a low-pressure region, the wind blows inward towards the centre of low pressure and rotates in a counterclockwise manner.

• Whereas, in a high-pressure zone, the wind blows outward from the centre of the high pressure and thereby rotates in a clockwise pattern.

• The overall movement of air is in the upward direction, forming the zones of the low and high-pressure zone.

Thus, the divergence of air movement is not associated with the low-pressure system of Northern hemisphere.

Thus, the correct answer is option (A).
