Question : 2
Which of the following statements characterize the anticyclones?
- Anticyclones are low-pressure systems.
- They are characterized by divergent wind circulation.
- They are indicative of dry weather conditions.
a) 1 and 3 only
b) 2 and 3 only
c) 1 only
d) 1, 2 and 3
Answer »Answer: (b)
An anti-cyclone is also known as a high-pressure area -- is a large atmospheric circulation system with the wind flowing clockwise around it in the Northern Hemisphere, and counter-clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere.
Anticyclones form from air masses cooling more than their surroundings, which causes the air to contract slightly making the air denser. Since dense air weighs more, the weight of the atmosphere overlying a location increases, causing increased surface air pressure.
The air mass cooling that results in an anticyclone forming can be caused by either conduction as the air flows over a relatively cool ocean surface, or through the loss of infrared radiation over land during the fall, winter, or spring when little sunlight is available to warm the air mass.

Question : 5
Normally, the temperature decreases with the increase in height from the Earth’s surface because
- The atmosphere can be heated upwards only from the Earth’s surface.
- There is more moisture in the upper atmosphere.
- The air is less dense in the upper atmosphere.
- Select the correct answer using the codes given below:
a) 2 and 3 only
b) 1 only
c) 1, 2 and 3
d) 1 and 3 only
Answer »Answer: (d)
The temperature decreases with height in the lowest 10-20 km of the atmosphere (called the troposphere) because most of the solar radiation passes through the atmosphere with little or no effect - that radiation is absorbed by the solid Earth surface and is transferred to the air above the surface by conduction.
