how are isobars spaced when indicating strong winds?
closely spaced
widely spaced
evenly spaced
irregularly spaced
Brief Explanations
In meteorology (a subfield of Natural Science, specifically Geography or Atmospheric Science), isobars represent lines of equal atmospheric pressure. The spacing of isobars is related to the pressure gradient force: closer isobars mean a steeper pressure gradient, which drives stronger winds. So for strong winds, isobars are closely spaced.
