Question

Short answer type questions.
What is a Barometer used for?
Write the two factors affecting air pressure.
Name the types of permanent winds.
What do you mean by monsoon winds?
What is Ferrell's law?​

Answer 1

1) A barometer is a scientific instrument used to measure atmospheric pressure, also called barometric pressure.

2) 1)The 3 main factors that affect barometric (air) pressure are:
Temperature
Altitude or Elevation.
Moisture or water vapour.

3) The Earth contains five major wind zones: polar easterlies, westerlies, horse latitudes, trade winds, and the doldrums.

4) A monsoon is a seasonal change in the direction of the prevailing, or strongest, winds of a region. Monsoons cause wet and dry seasons throughout much of the tropics. Monsoons are most often associated with the Indian Ocean. Monsoons always blow from cold to warm regions.

5) Ferrel's law involves the deflection of a particle (water, air, ice, or the like) in motion of the Coriolis effect . ... As a result of this action, winds, oceanic currents, and drift ice are deflected rightward (with reference to their original motion) in the Northern Hemisphere and leftward in the Southern Hemisphere.

Hope this answer helps uu :D..

Answer 2

Answer:

I) WHAT IS A BAROMETER USED FOR ?

=} A BAROMETER IS USED TO MEASURE AIR PRESSURE .

II) WRITE THE THREE / TWO FACTORS AFFECTING AIR PRESSURE .

=}

• TEMPERATURE
• ALTITUDE OR ELEVATION
• MOISTURE OR WATER VAPOUR

III) NAME TWO / THREE TYPES OF PERMANENT WINDS .

=}

• TRADE WINDS
• EASTERLIES
• WESTERLIES

IV) WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY MONSOON WINDS ?

=}A MONSOON IS A SEASONAL CHANGE IN THE DIRECTION OF THE PREVAILING, OR STRONGEST, WINDS OF A REGION

V) WHAT IS FERRELL’S LAW ?

FERREL’S LAW INVOLVES THE DEFLECTION OF A PARTICLE ( WATER, AIR, ICE, OR THE LIKE ) IN THE MOTION OF THE CORIOLIS EFFECT.
