Question

b) There is a belt of low pressure between 5°N and 5° S of the equator. Tell me why ?​

Answer 1

Answer

Equatorial Low-Pressure Belts

This low-pressure belt extends from 0 to 5° North and South of Equator. Due to the vertical rays of the sun here, there is intense heating. The air, therefore, expands and rises as convection current causing low pressure to develop here.

Answer 2

Width may vary between 5°N and 5°S and 20°N and 20°S. This belt happens to be the zone of convergence of trade winds from two hemispheres from sub-tropical high pressure belts. This belt is also called the Doldrums, because of the extremely calm air movements.
