The weather diagram shows three parallel isobars labeled 1010 hPa, 1005 hPa and 1000 hPa, each spaced 200 km apart. A low‑pressure centre marked L is located at the 1000 hPa isobar. A cold front is indicated by a blue line crossing the map at the 1005 hPa isobar. Wind arrows show that wind blows parallel to the isobars. Using the rule that for every 2 hPa pressure drop per 100 km the wind speed increases by 5 km h^{-1}, determine the approximate wind speed at a point situated 100 km north of the low‑pressure centre. Also state the type of front shown.

Answer Options

A. Approximately 14 km h^{-1}; cold front
B. Approximately 24 km h^{-1}; cold front
C. Approximately 19 km h^{-1}; warm front
Correct Answer D. Approximately 19 km h^{-1}; cold front
Correct Answer
D
Correct Option:
Approximately 19 km h^{-1}; cold front
