1.       Wind speed in a tropicaJ severe cyclone is:

a.       27 -33 kt 

b.     48 - 63 kt  

c.       17-27 kt

2.       Fronts are characteristic of:

a.      Tropical cyclone

b.    Extra-tropical depressions

c.      Monsoon depressions

3.       During re-curvature maximum weather in a monsoon depression occurs in

a.         SE sector

b.       NW sector 

c.      SW sector

d.       NE sector

4.       On whatever compass course the cyclone is approached, strong winds from the port indicate that the centre lies somewhere

ATMOSPHERIC DENSTY / Air Density

1.       Density is     at poles than equator

a.    Higher

b.      Lower

c.      Same

2.       Above 8 km density is         at poles than at equator

a.      Higher

b.    Lower

c.      Same

3.       The altitude in ISA at which air density is the same as the observed density is called

a.    Density Altitude

c.      Real Density

4.       Density is usually expressed as

a.      Kg/sq m

b.    g/cu m

c.      N/sq m

5.       Higher density altitude means        density
