Case-Based Questions:

Ques 1)Which AI application is used in the following cases?

a. Fani, a rare summer cyclone in the Bay of Bengal, hits eastern India on May 03,2019. It is one of the
strongest cyclones to have hit India in the last 20 years, according to the Indian government’s meteorological
department. Storm surges and powerful winds reaching 125 mph blew off roofs, damaged power lines, and
uprooted countless trees.
But the worst-affected state, Odisha, has been successful in keeping the loss of life and numbers of affected
people to a minimum. This is the result of a very effective strategy of disaster preparation and effective
weather forecasting.

b. When we speak in our device, the microphones of the device hear our audio and plots the graphs of our
sound frequencies. As light-wave has a standard frequency for each colour, so does sound. Every sound
(phonetics) has a unique frequency graph.
