Q10. Assertion (A) : Bulk of the rainfall of the Coromandel coast is derived from depressions and cyclone Reason (R): The low pressure conditions which once prevailed over north-western India get transferred the centre of Bay of Bengal by early November ​

Answers 2

Answer:

The bulk of the rainfall of the Coromandel Coast is derived from depressions and cyclones. Parts of western coast and northeastern India receive over about 400 cm of rainfall annually.

The correct answer is explained below:

  • Assertion is correct but the reason is not correct.
  • The low-pressure conditions over northwestern India moved to the Bay of Bengal by early November.
  • This shift leads to cyclonic depressions over the Andaman Sea.
  • These cyclones usually cross the eastern coasts of India and cause heavy and widespread rain.
  • The bulk of the rainfall of the Coromandel Coast is derived from depressions and cyclones.
  • Parts of western coast and northeastern India receive over about 400 cm of rainfall annually.
  • The north-east monsoon winds that pick up moisture from the Bay of Bengal are blocked by these mountains.
  • Therefore, because of the obstruction created by the Eastern Ghats to these winds, the Coromandel coast receives rainfall during the winter season.
