प्रश्न
How does the following element influence the weather of a place?
Temperature
उत्तर
Temperature: When the temperature of a place increases, the air gets heated, expands, and rises. This leads to a decrease in air pressure in the area. When the temperature falls, the air gets cold, contracts, and descends downwards. This leads to an increase in air pressure. Thus, air pressure decreases with an increase in temperature. This is the reason why areas close to the equator generally have low air pressure.
