Which of the following rivers does not form any delta at its mouth ?

ACauvery

BMahanadi

CGodavari

DTapti

Akhilesh ? Mar 17 '25 at 22:13

correct answer is: d
Explanation: Among the given options, the Tapti River does not form a delta at its mouth. Deltas are typically formed when rivers deposit sediment as they slow down upon approaching a body of water. The Tapti River flows westward into the Arabian Sea, where the conditions are less conducive for delta formation compared to the east-flowing rivers like the Cauvery, Mahanadi, and Godavari, which form deltas in the Bay of Bengal.

• Option a (Cauvery): Forms a delta in the Bay of Bengal.
• Option b (Mahanadi): Forms a delta in the Bay of Bengal.
• Option c (Godavari): Forms a delta in the Bay of Bengal.
• Option d (Tapti): Does not form a delta as it flows into the Arabian Sea.

High pressure subtropical calm belts known as Horse Latitudes lies between

A $$0^{\circ}\text{ and }15^{\circ}$$

B $$20^{\circ}\text{ and }25^{\circ}$$

C $$30^{\circ}\text{ and }35^{\circ}$$

DNone of these

Akhilesh ? Mar 17 '25 at 21:52

correct answer is: c
Explanation: The Horse Latitudes are high-pressure belts located between 30° and 35° latitude in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. These regions are characterized by sinking air from the Hadley cell, leading to clear skies and light variable winds.

• Option a: Incorrect. 0° and 15° are near the equator, home to the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ), not the Horse Latitudes.
• Option b: Incorrect. 20° and 25° are still too close to the subtropics but not the specific range of the Horse Latitudes.
• Option c: Correct. 30° and 35° mark the typical range for the Horse Latitudes, where the subtropical high-pressure belts are found.
• Option d: Incorrect. Option c is correct, so "None of these" is not applicable.
