1. Observe the map on page RM 172. Answer the questions

.

Map RM 17 V: 1

1. Draw and describe what you saw.2. Copy and fill in the table below.

3. There are high and low pressure systems that affect the humidity and temperature outside. Based on what you observed in this lab, do high temperatures go with low or high pressure weather systems? Why?

.

Crushin It V: 1

Temperature Pressure

Inside the Can

Outside the Can

Crushin It V: 1OUTSIDE THE CAN-Cooler air-Higher density-Higher air pressure

INSIDE THE CAN-Hot water-Low density-Low air pressure

High pressure air tries to move into the low-pressure area in the can, but the opening is sealed by water.

Crushin It V: 1OUTSIDE THE CAN-Cooler air-Higher density-Higher air pressure

INSIDE THE CAN-Hot water-Low density-Low air pressure

Pressure from outside the can is stronger than inside the can and pushes the sides of the can inward.
