Write a detailed note on Coriolis Force. |
| Answer» <html><body><p></p><a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/solution-25781" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about SOLUTION">SOLUTION</a> :The rotation of the earth about its axis affects the direction of the wind. This force is called the Coriolis force after the French physicist who described it in 1844. It deflects the wind to the right direction in the northern hemisphere and to the left in the wouthern hemisphere. The deflection is more when the wind velocity is high. The Coriolis force is directly proportional to the angle of latitude. It is maximum at the poles and is absent at the equator. <br/> The Coriolis force acts perpendicular to the pressure <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/gradient-13951" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about GRADIENT">GRADIENT</a> force. The pressure gradient force is perpendicular to an isobar. The higher the pressure gradient force, the more is the velocity of the wind and the larger is the deflection in the direction of wind. As a result of these two forces <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/operating-1136761" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about OPERATING">OPERATING</a> perpendicular to each other, in the <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/low-537644" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about LOW">LOW</a>-pressure areas the wind blows aroundit.

Particularly, the information collected from the <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/ocean-1127860" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about OCEAN">OCEAN</a> floor mapping provided new dimensions for the study of distribution of oceans and continents. <br/> (a) These currents are generated due to radioactive elements causing thermal differences in the mantle portion. Holmes argued that there exists a system of such currents in the entire mantle portion. This was an attempt to provide an explanation to the issue of force, on the basis of which contemporary scientists discarded the continental <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/drift-442919" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about DRIFT">DRIFT</a> theory. <br/> (b) Detailed research of the ocean configuration revealed that the ocean floor is not just a vast plain but it is full of relief. <br/> (c) Expeditions to map the oceanic floor in the post-war period provided a detailed picture of the ocean relief and indicated the existence of submerged mountain ranges as well as deep trenches, mostly located closer to the <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/continent-931884" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about CONTINENT">CONTINENT</a> margins. <br/> (d) The mid-oceanic ridges were found to be most active in terms of volcanic eruptions. The dating of the rocks from the oceanic crust revealed the fact that they are much younger than the continental areas. <br/> (e) Rocks on either side of the crest of oceanic ridges and having equi-distant locations from the crest were found to have remarkable similarities both in terms of their constituents and their age.</body></html> | |

Write short notes on the following: (i) Safe place for a thermometer (ii) Indian Daily Weather report . |
| Answer» <html><body><p></p>Solution :(i) Safe place for thermometer: It is not safe to keep a thermometer in sunlight. We should also not keep it in airtight surroundings. The Stevenson screen is designed to protect thermometers from precipitation and direct sunlight while allowing <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/air-852233" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about AIR">AIR</a> to circulate <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/freely-7381827" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about FREELY">FREELY</a> around them. It is made from wood with louvered sides to allow <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/free-465311" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about FREE">FREE</a> and even flow of air. It is painted white to reflect radiation. The purpose of the Stevenson screen is to create a uniform temperature enclosure that closely represents the same temperature as the air outside. It stands on four legs and is about 3 feet 6 inches above the level of the ground. The legs must be sufficiently rigid and be buried sufficiently in the ground to prevent shaking. The front panel is hinged at the bottom to form a door, which allows for maintenance and reading of the thermometers. The door of Stevenson screen is always <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/towards-7269729" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about TOWARDS">TOWARDS</a> the north in the northern hemisphere and towards the south in the southern hemisphere because direct sunrays also affect mercury. <br/>(ii) Indian Daily Weather Report: IMD became a member of the World Meteorological Organization after independence on 27 April 1949. The agency has gained in prominence due to the significance of the monsoon rains on Indian agriculture.

However, in poor countries, it is not uncommon for a seismic event of this scale to cause significant injuries and fatalities.

In the event of a moderate earthquake, such as a 6.0 magnitude event, these informal structures can collapse. (iv) It is poverty, and the many factors associated with poverty (such as corruption, poor access to building skills, knowledge, and materials, and other reasons), that create the vulnerability gap between the rich and the poor countries.</body></html> | |
