Question

<!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> Where is the speed of the wind higher?

• A. Forest covers
• B. Ocean surfaces
• C. Plains
• D. Mountains

Answer 1

Answer: (B), (C)

Plains

<!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> The speed of the wind will be higher over ocean surfaces and plains as there are less obstacles. Land, except plains and deserts, has mountains, coastal barriers, trees, human-made structures, that cause a resistance to the wind flow.
