Question

<!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> The winds are driven by

1) Gravitational force

2) Pressure gradient force

3) Coriolis force

Which among the statement/s given above is/are correct?

• A. 1 and 2 only
• B. 2 and 3 only
• C. 1 and 3 only
• D. 1,2, and 3

Answer 1

The correct option is D 1,2, and 3

<!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> The gravitational force also plays a role in the movement of wind eg- valley inversion

Pressure gradient force causes wind formation and Coriolis force deflects the winds
