Wind currents due to uneven heating between the equator and the poles

Q. Cold wind from polar regions blow towards the equator, but they don't blow straight towards the equator. Which of the following causes this?

1. Tilt of earth's axis.
2. Moon's rotation
3. Revolution of the earth.
4. Rotation of the earth.

Q.

Due to uneven heating of the Earth, the region near the equator receives more heat as compared to poles. So if I stand facing towards the pole then I will feel the wind coming from:

1. none of the above

2. the front

3. sideways

4. the back

Q.

Which of the following is/are methods to find the direction of wind at a given place?

1. While flying a kite, air exerts pressure on the kite due to which the kite flies. The direction in which the kite flies is the direction in which the wind is blowing

2. While riding a bicycle, the direction in which it is difficult to ride the cycle is opposite to the direction of the blowing wind

3. By freely suspending a N-S pole magnet

4. All of these

Q. On Earth, winds from the north and the south blow towards the equator. What can we infer from this?

1. It is hotter in and around equator.
2. Earth is round or spherical in shape.
3. It is hotter in and around the north and south.
4. Wind does not flow from the east or the west.

Q.

The air near the equator is comparatively colder than the air at the poles.

1. True

2. False
