Solution

Dear Student, Cyclone-A cyclone is a violent storm in which the air goes round in circles. It is formed when low atmospheric pressure is created over the sea. ......... Thunderstorm-If there is accumulation of moisture in the atmosphere, there is thunderstorm. This occurs mostly during summer when the sun is hot and keeps soaking up water from the ground.This moist air rises to form small clouds and gradually increases to a huge cloud. Due to extreme cold conditions large water drops and ice crystals form inside the cloud. They are supported by powerful winds. An electric voltage is produced between the upper and lower layers of the clouds when they collide and rub against each other. This voltage, when it is sufficiently high is discharged in the form of lightning and thunderstorm. ....
