The Pressure Gradient Force

This video describes the pressure gradient force and provides a rigorous mathematical derivation of the force equation. Moreover, the lecture explains how the expression can be used to estimate the pressure gradients in synoptic pressure charts. Lastly, the video describes that the process of breathing using the lungs is governed by the pressure gradient force.
