What is a cyclone?
Describe the formation of a cyclone.
Answers
Cyclone is system of winds rotating inwards at a high speed with the area of low pressure in the middle. Tropical cyclones are formed only over warm ocean waters near the equator. When warm, moist air over the ocean rises upward from near the surface, a cyclone is formed.
Cyclone
A small low pressure system with very high speed winds revolving around it is called cyclone.
How it forms
The most air over the sea and ocean gets heated by sun rays and rises up creating a low pressure region. This warm air get cool and starts condensing.
During condensation heat is released and air around it gets warm. This warm air rises upwards creating a low pressure region.
This space is filled by cooler air. This cycle of events continue till a very low pressure system with very high speed winds revolving around it is formed. This forms cyclone.
