Answers
1. Ans - Convection occurs when the Earth is heated unevenly. The air over the Earth will heat according to how fast the Earth under it heats. ... So the warm air over the land heats, then expands, and the pressure drops causing the air to rise.
2. Ans - High speed of wind is due to strong pressure gradient force. when pressure changes rapidly over a small distance. ... strong winds always occur from large pressure gradient force. besides this thunderstorm can also cause high speed of winds.
3. Ans - They are not the same as katabatic winds, which are larger and stronger.Mountain and valley breezes form through a process similar to sea and land breezes.
During the day, the sun heats up valley air rapidly. Convection causes it to rise, causing a valley breeze.
