Weathering is the process where rock is dissolved, worn
away or broken down into smaller and smaller pieces.

(4b)
(i)surface area,
(ii)rock composition
(iii)Climatic conditions

(4c)
Exfoliation is a process involving the weathering of rocks. A
sudden change in temperature may cause cracks and fissures
in the rocks. As water percolates into these fissures, chemical
weathering takes place. The sudden expansion and contraction of rocks results in the peeling off of the outer layers of the rocks.

Cloud cover = The amount of cloud in the atmosphere is measured by Oktas. In order words,the amount of the cloud in the air is expressed in okras or Eights of the sky cover

(5c)
The speed of that wind can be measured using a tool called an anemometer.
An anemometer looks like a weather vane, but instead of measuring which direction the wind is blowing with pointers, it has four cups so that it can more accurately measure wind speed. When wind pushes into the cups, they rotate the axis.
Reading is taken twice daily eg 9.00hours and 15.00hours. It is recorded in note book. it states the date of recording .The record is signed by the observer

(1a)
(i) Climatic Conditions: Climatic or soil conditions in certain areas are suited for the production of a particular
product.

(ii) Nearness to Raw Materials: Nearness to raw materials is a dominant factor in the location of an industry, especially that industry which uses bulky raw material that is expensive to transport and looses weight in the manufacturing process.

(iii) Nearness to Sources of power: Nearness to the sources of power is another important cause of localisation of industries.

(iv) Nearness to Markets: Before starting an industry, an entrepreneur has to take into consideration the market potentialities of his product.

(v) Adequate and Trained Labour: Industries tend to be concentrated in those areas where adequate supplies of trained labour are available.

(1b)
(i)Reputation: The place where an industry is localised gains reputation, and so do the products manufactured
there. As a result, products bearing the name of that place find wide markets, such as Sheffield cutlery,

(ii)Skilled Labour: Localisation leads to
specialisation in particular trades. As a result, workers skilled in those trades are attracted to that place.

(iii)Growth of Facilities: Concentration of an industry in particular locality leads to the growth of certain facilities there. To cater to the needs of the industry, banks and financial institutions open their branches, whereby the firms are able to get timely credit facilities.

(iv)Subsidiary Industries: Where industries are localised, subsidiary industries grow up to supply machines, tools, implements and other materials, and to utilise their by-products.

(v)Employment Opportunities: As a corollary to the above, with the localisation of an industry in a particular locality and the establishment of subsidiary industries, employment opportunities considerably increase in that locality.
