​​​In the figures given below, $\mathbf{L}$ and $\mathbf{H}$ indicate low and high pressure centers, respectively; $\mathbf{PGF}$, $\mathbf{CoF}$ and $\mathbf{CeF}$ indicate Pressure Gradient Force, Coriolis Force and Centrifugal Force, respectively; $\mathbf{V}$ is Velocity.

[The arrows indicate only the directions but not the magnitudes of the forces and velocity.]

Which of the following is/are the correct representation(s) of the directions of various forces and velocity in the gradient wind balance in the northern hemisphere?

  1. $textsf{(i)}$
  2. $\textsf{(ii)}$
  3. $\textsf{(iii)}$
  4. $\textsf{(iv)}$
