Group 4 Physics Project- How does night breeze take place? Objective : How does night breeze take place? Hypothesis: The night breeze occurs because of the pressure difference between the shore(land) and the sea. Materials: - 2 Barometers Variables: Pressure here is the only variable since it's the atmospheric pressure that we are trying to measure.. Time will be a controlled variable Procedure: 1) At 7:30 PM one Barometer should be placed at a distance from the shore and another should be placed at shore. 2) Record the results. And collect data Now assuming that there is a pressure difference, we must investigate what caused this pressure difference. The thing that caused the pressure difference is the temperature difference between land and sea. Because hot temperature lightens the density of the air and cold temperature makes it heavier. We have to measure the temperatures of sand and water at night, Which moves us to the...
