Describe the two characteristics of the general surface wind circulation pattern associated with this low-pressure system

Which location on the map, W, X, Y, or Z, most likely has the greatest wind speed? Describe one piece of evidence on the map indicating that this location has the greatest wind speed.

Answer 1

Answer: I would Say X.

Explanation: I say this because the numbers are higher near X. I'm not sure because the map does not say much. Hope this helped. Have A Good Day!!!

Answer 2

The wind speed is highest at point X, due to high pressure area and counterclockwise flow.

The given problem is based on the wind circulation system. In climatology, the wind circulation system is referred to as the movement of air relative to the surface of Earth. The characteristics of the general wind circulation pattern associated with low-pressure system is as follows:

• The Wind flow will be towards the low pressure region, and the air rises in the atmosphere.
• As air rises, the moisture gets into condensation and clouds are formed along with the precipitation.

The evidence for determining the greatest wind speed is that, "Wind moves counterclockwise around low-pressure area and clockwise around the high-pressure area".  Now, the pressure and speed for the wind is,

$P=\dfrac{1}{2} \rho v^{2}$

here, P is the pressure and v is the speed of wind. So, higher the pressure, higher will be speed.

As per the given map, point X represents the area of counterclockwise movement of wind, so probably it should have high pressure, hence speed is higher at point X.

Thus, we can conclude that the wind speed is highest at point X, due to high pressure area and counterclockwise flow.
