The pressure gradient force:
A) can be measured by knowing the sea level pressure of just one point.
B) creates wind if it is horizontal.
C) will not necessarily result in the movement of air.
D) is unrelated to the speed of air movement.
Question 2
The horizontal pressure gradient force (pgf):
A) is solely responsible for air movement.
B) can affect the direction of wind flow.
C) is always directed from high pressure to low pressure.
D) is strongest where the temperature differentials are the greatest.
E) all of the above
