Question 1 of 5
1. Question
Most parts of India do not have rainfall in the winter season, because
- The wind moves from land to sea.
- Cyclonic circulation on land
- There is little humidity
Select the correct answer code:
Correct
Solution: a)
Winter monsoons do not cause rainfall as they move from land to the sea. It is because firstly, they have little humidity; and secondly, due to anti cyclonic circulation on land, the possibility of rainfall from them reduces. So, most parts of India do not have rainfall in the winter season.

Question 3 of 5
3. Question
Consider the following statements about Dew point.
- Dew point is the temperature at which the atmosphere is saturated with water vapour.
- The dew point gives an indication of the humidity.
- A higher dew point means there will be less moisture in the air.
Which of the above statements is/are correct?
Correct
Solution: c)
Dew point, the temperature at which the atmosphere is saturated with water vapour, when it is cooled without changing its pressure or vapour content. A given volume of air containing much water vapour has a higher dew point than the same volume of drier air; thus the dew point gives an indication of the humidity. In meteorology the dew point is applied, for example, in predicting the height of the base of certain types of clouds. A higher dew point means there will be more moisture in the air.
