What are some Properties of Air?
Density: the amount of mass in a given volume of air.
More molecules = more density Fewer molecules = less density
Because air has mass, it also has other properties, including density and pressure.
![Page 5: Chapter 5](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062501/568164cb550346895dd6ea4f/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
What are some Properties of Air?
Pressure: is the result of the weight of a column of air pushing on an area
The weight of air above your desk = the weight of a school bus!
Air doesn’t crush your desk because the air molecules push in all directions.
Because air has mass, it also has other properties, including density and pressure.

What Instruments Measure Air Pressure?
A Barometer is an instrument used to measure air pressure.
Two kinds of barometers Mercury & Aneroid (without liquid)

How Does Altitude Affect Air Pressure and Density?
Altitude or elevation is the distance above sea level.
Air Pressure Decreases as Altitude Increases.
As Air Pressure Decreases Density Decreases.

Essential Question What factors affect the weather?
○ What causes Wind?

Differences in Air Pressure Differences in air pressure cause
air to move. Wind is movement of air parallel
to the Earth’s surface. Differences in air pressure are
caused by unequal heating of the atmosphere

Measuring Wind Winds are described by their direction
and speed! How can you measure wind speed?

Wind-chill Factor Wind can
cause increased cooling.
The stronger the wind, the colder you feel!

Local Winds Winds blowing over short distances. Unequal heating of the Earth’s
surface in a small area.

Coriolis effect The way the Earth's rotation makes
winds curve.

Global winds The movement
of air between the equator and the poles

Horse latitudes Area near the Equator where warm air rises. Little or no wind.(The trade winds meet at the doldrums)
Belt of calm air at about 30 degrees north and south. Sailors ran out of food and threw their horses overboard here.

Essential Question What factors affect the weather?
○ What Is Relative Humidity and how Is It Measured?
![Page 35: Chapter 5](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062501/568164cb550346895dd6ea4f/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)

What is Relative Humidity? Humidity is the amount of Water
Vapor in the air! Relative Humidity is the percentage
of water vapor that is in the air compared to the maximum amount of water vapor the air can hold at a particular temperature.
![Page 37: Chapter 5](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062501/568164cb550346895dd6ea4f/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

How do you measure relative Humidity? Relative Humidity can be measured by using an instrument
called a psychrometer.
2 thermometers dry & wet. When it is “slung” air blows over the thermometers. Wet bulb thermometer is cooled by evaporation. When humidity is high this does not occur. When humidity is low the temperature drops. Relative humidity is found by comparing the two
temperatures.
