How cyclones are formed
  • 1 answers

Yogita Ingle 5 years, 10 months ago

A Cyclone is a large scale air mass that rotates around strong centers of low pressure.

  • Water vapors are formed when water is heated.
  • This heat is released to atmosphere when water vapors convert to water during rains.
  • The heat released, warms the air around and makes it to move up. This also results in decreased air pressure.
  • Hence, cooler air from surrounding rushes to take the warm air’s place.
  • This repeats till a low pressure system with surrounding high speed winds is created. This is called a Cyclone.
  • Cyclone depends on wind speed, direction, temperature and humidity.

Cyclones are also called Hurricane in USA and Typhoon in Japan and Philippines
