Answer the following questions:
1. Draw a labelled diagram to show aphelion and perihelion.
2
Assess the importance of Indian Standard Time.
3.
How does water vapour affect air pressure?
How does latitudinal extent and distance from the sea atfect the climate of Asia?
Answers
Answer:
2. Since many meridians pass through it, it is important to adopt the local time of one central meridian of a country as the standard time for the country. Thus, we need a standard meridian for the country. In India 82 ½ °E longitude determines the standard time. This is known as the Indian Standard Time.
3. Therefore, as humidity increases (more water vapor in the air), air pressure decreases, and as humidity decreases, air pressure increases.Large latitudinal Extent: The continent of Asia has a large latitudinal extent. ... Distance form the Sea: Major parts of Asia lie in the interiors far away from the moderating influence of the Sea. Thus, the extreme type of climate is experienced in these regions with low and uneven rainfall.
