(i) If the surface air pressure is 1,000 mb, the air pressure at 1 km above the surface will be:
The air pressure decreases by 1 mb for every increase bof 10 m in height
Since, height increased = 1 km
Air pressure decrease by units = 1000/10 = 100 units
Hence, pressure at 1 km above will be
1000 - 100 = 900 mb
ii) The Inter Tropical Convergence Zone normally occurs:
Near the equator
iii) The direction of wind around a low pressure in northern hemisphere is:
Anti-clock wise
iv) The source region for the formation of air
masses is :
Siberian plain
