How windbreaks functions is:
Correct answer: C. All of the above
- A. The air is baffled and mixed as it hits the wind breaks
- B. Causing a disruptive turbulence patterns which spoils the energy and velocity of the wind
- C. All of the above
- D. This mixing and churning continues as the pressure gradient is built by the windbreak and the air leaks through or rolls over the top of the screen
Explanation
A windbreak disrupts airflow by baffling and mixing the air, creating turbulence that reduces wind energy and velocity. The pressure gradient then makes air leak through or pass over the screen, so all three statements describe its action.
