Conditions suitable for the formation of a tornado develop when varying temperatures and humidity come together and form thunderclouds. This refers to the presence of warm and moist condition in the lower atmosphere and cold and dry conditions in the upper atmosphere. The place where these varying masses of air meet is known as the dry-line. Such conditions, which are suitable for the formation of a tornado, are most often observed just before a low pressure system develops.

Once the ideal conditions occur, the warm air tries to rise in the atmosphere, while the cold air blocks it. This makes the air in between rotate horizontally. In the meanwhile, the land is heated by the Sun, and hence, the air near the ground becomes warm and starts rising. Continuous fueling by the heat energy from the Sun ensures that the warm air has an upper hand over cold air. As a result of this, the cold air at the top starts sinking and the warm air below starts rising in a spinning motion. As the amount of warm air increases, the formation gains height and becomes intense. The intensity of these devastating tornadoes is such that they can clear off anything that comes in their path.

In thermodynamics, deposition is a phase transition in which gases are directly transformed to solids without converting to liquids first.

For example, watervapour is directly changed to ice without first becoming to liquid water. In this process, heat is released making the process exothermic process.

The only active volcano in India is situated in Andaman-Nicobar islands.

Radioactive decay is likely to occur when the nuclei of an atom doesn't have enough binding energy to hold the nucleus together due to excess of rotons or nutrons in it.

1 TB  >  1 GB  >  1 MB  >  1 KB

1 Tb (Tera Byte) = 1024 GB

1 GB (Giga Byte) = 1024 MB

1 MB (Mega Byte) = 1024 KB

1 KB (Kilo Byte) = 1024 Bytes

1 Byte = 8 Bit

Hence, largest unit of information is TB (Tera Byte) and smallest unit of information is Bit.

False. Cube is not a Polygon.

Because polygon is a two dimensional figure and can be drawn on a flat surface whereas Cube is three dimensional figure and cannot be drawn on a flat surface.

Satellites orbit the earth at a speed of 28,000 kmph.

Satellites that are further away actually travel slower. The International Space Station has a Low Earth Orbit, about 400 kilometers (250 miles) above the earth's surface. Objects orbiting at that altitude travel about 28,000 kilometers per hour (17,500 miles per hour).
