Multiple Choice
Which of these is Not a way you see changes in weather?
Air Movement
Sun's Radiation
Formation of Clouds
Precipitation
3
-Air movement (wind)
-Formation of Clouds
-Precipitation
4
Multiple Choice
Movement does not happen on their own, what is needed to make movement happen?
Energy
A Push
A Pull
A force
5
Multiple Choice
Energy is needed to make movement happen. The energy source that causes air movement is?
The tides
The clouds
The Sun
The ocean
6
1. The uneven heating of the earth (equator = direct, poles = indirect)
2.The tilt/ angle of the Earth and its always moving southern hemisphere gets more sun
3. Rotation of the Earth (day / night)
4.Some surfaces absorb heat better than others (dark surfaces vs bright surfaces)
7
Multiple Choice
Which of these describes convection
Moving from high pressure to low pressure
Warm raises, cool sinks
Warm expanse, cool condenses
All of the above
8
Multiple Choice
Convection is warm air rises, cool air sinks. Which weather effects is caused by convection?
Clouds
Winds
Fronts
All the above
9
-Clouds
-Winds
-Fronts, caused by air movement
10
-What is happening in this image?
-How is it happening?
11
Multiple Choice
Which description below best describes the last image?
Heat rises during the day and sinks at night
Some surfaces absorb heat better than others
Direct radiation is on the right, the indirect radiation is on the left
Warm air expands the cool air condenses
12
Over the warm surface emits heat warming the air. Causing it to rise. The air over the cool surface does not receive heat so it sinks and condenses. This makes it moved towards the lower air pressure.
13
-What is happening in this image?
-How is it happening?
14
Multiple Choice
Which description below best describes the last image?
The air over land is warmer than the air over water during the day, and switches at night
High pressure is moving to low, low pressure is moving to high
The land reflects the sun's radiation and the water absorbs it
The circles are moving in opposite directions.
15
During the night the sun is not heating the surface. The land can no longer heat the air causing the air to cool over the land. The water absorbed the sun's radiation and now emits the air causing the air to rise over the water.
16
-What is happening in this image? -How is it happening?
17
Multiple Choice
Which description below best describes the last image?
The Earth is flat
It isa funny looking football field
Sun's radiation heats the equator indirectly and directly at the poles
Cold air is moving towards the center and the warm air is moving up / away
18
They have the latitude lines labeled. It show the what the land look like at each latitude.
There are cold (high pressure) lines moving towards the center equator. There are warm (low pressure) lines being forces up and away from the equator.
19
Fill in the Blanks
Energy that makes the wind comes from the
20
Match
Match the reason of the Earth heating unevenly with what actually is happening
Direct and indirect sunlight
Rotation of the Earth
Angle of the Earth
Surfaces heat unevenly
Equator gets more than the poles
Day and night
south half gets more sun than north
Absorb (dark) and reflect (bright)
Equator gets more than the poles
Day and night
south half gets more sun than north
Absorb (dark) and reflect (bright)
