🔍 Key Concepts

• Buys Ballot’s Law and what it says about wind direction and pressure systems • The difference between general “rules of thumb” vs. formal physical laws in meteorology • How mariners use wind direction relative to their heading to locate low‑pressure centers

💭 Think About

• Which option refers specifically to the relationship between wind direction and the center of a low‑pressure system? • On a vessel in the Northern Hemisphere, if you face into the wind, where is the low‑pressure center usually located relative to you? • Which choice is known from basic marine meteorology as a practical rule to estimate storm center bearing, rather than a fluid‑mechanics law or a vague approach?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice is a named meteorological rule used in navigation and weather routing. • Eliminate any law that deals mainly with fluid pressure in all directions (not storm positioning). • Ask yourself: which option is taught in basic marine weather as the standard method for estimating the direction to a storm’s center from observed wind?
