Wind
Week of:
1. Air Pressure- the force exerted on you by the weight
of tiny particles of air
2. Wind- the horizontal movement of air from an area of
high pressure to an area of lower pressure
3. Dense- the amount of space the material takes up.
The tighter molecules are packed, the more dense
something is.
4. Local Winds- created by the movement of wind from
high to low pressure in one, specific area.
5. Sea Breeze- The movement of air from the sea to the
land during the day. Caused by the change in air
pressure from the heating of the sand.
6. Land Breeze-The movement of air from the land to
the sea at night. Caused by the change in air
pressure form the cooling of the sand.
