In early September of 1996, Hurricane Fran hit the eastern coast ofthe United States. The accompanying maps represent the location of Hurricane Fran at 7:00 AM EST on September 5 and 6.• Note that the small, black boxes extending southeast from the storm's center represent the location of the hurricane's eye at 6-hour intervals. The black lines are isobars, or lines of equal pressure, at 7:00 AM EST.• A steep pressure gradient is represented by a narrower spacing of isobar lines. This means that the pressure gradient of an area with isobar lines nearer to each other is steeper than an area with isobar lines with more space between them.Use the information provided by these maps to match the correct answers to each of the following questions.Pressure grad higher of the 5th at 7ameye traveled approx. 400 milesapprox 17 mphThe density of mercury is 13.5 times greater than the density of water. If you were to build a barometer that used water instead of mercury to record the standard pressure at sea level, what would be the height of that barometer? Assume that the mercury barometer is 76 centimeters, or 29.92 inches, long (this is the standard atmospheric pressure at sea level).1026 centimeters (403.92 inches)Maps that show pressure variation are used to investigate air movement.
