AI Generated Solution

To determine whether the statement "A cyclone is formed by a very high-pressure system with very high-speed winds revolving around it" is correct, we can analyze the components of a cyclone. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Cyclones**: A cyclone is a large-scale air mass that rotates around a center of low pressure. It is characterized by strong winds and can lead to severe weather conditions. 2. **Pressure System**: In a cyclone, the pressure system is not high; rather, it is a low-pressure system. The winds in a cyclone rotate around this low-pressure center. ...

  • Arrange the following steps in a sequence involved in the formation of a cyclone. (A) The water vapour in the atmosphere condenses to rain drops releasing heat into the atmosphere and warming the air around. (B) Then more and more cool air rushes in towards the centre of the storm. (C) The warm air tends to move up and causes a drop in the pressure. (D) This ends with the formation of a very low pressure system with very high speed winds revolving around it.
