Question

Why do monsoon winds change their direction?


Open in App
Solution

Change in direction:

  1. Changes in the direction of trade winds caused by differential heating of the continent and the sea are known as monsoon winds.
  2. Because monsoon winds travel from a high-pressure to a low-pressure area, changes in air pressure cause the monsoon winds to change direction.
