Analyse how the combined action of pressure gradient force, Coriolis force and friction gives rise to geostrophic, cyclonic and anticyclonic circulation in the atmosphere. (Answer in 250 words)

Wind direction and speed at any point in the atmosphere result from the combined action of several forces. The interaction of pressure gradient force, Coriolis force, and friction produces different flow patterns such as geostrophic winds, cyclones, and anticyclones.
