The following six (6) items consist of two statements, Statement I and Statement II. Examine these two statements carefully and select the answer using the code given below. Statement I: Geostrophic wind blows above a height of 600 metres, parallel to the isobars. Statement II: Geostrophic wind is the horizontal wind velocity, in which the Coriolis force balances the horizontal pressure force.
Directions : In each of the following questions a statement is given, followed by two conclusions. Give answer : Statements : Wind is an inexhaustible source of energy and an aerogenerator can convert it into electricity. Though not much has been done in this field, the survey shows that there is vast potential for developing wind as alternative source of energy. Conclusions : I. Energy by wind is comparatively newly emerging field. II. The energy crisis can be dealt by exploring more in the field of aero-generation.
