Insolation is greatest at what
time of day?
Midday / noon
At what time would your shadow be the SHORTEST? 11am,
12pm, or 9am
12pm
What happens to the temperature as the angle of
insolation increases?
It gets warmer.
The smaller the angle of
insolation, the ___________ the
shadows.
longer
What type of texture gets the
hottest and WHY?
Rough textures. They cause light to bounce
around at many angles and absorb
more heat.
Clouds are made up of _____ or ___________.
Water droplets or ice crystals
This type cloud forms in layers at
midaltitudes.
altostratus
This type of cloud develops
vertically and produces severe
weather.
cumulonimbus
________ clouds are wispy and feathery and
only form at high altitudes.
cirrus
Explain the difference
between an ice crystal and water
droplet cloud.
Water droplet clouds tend to have sharp, well defined edges and appear darker in
color.Ice crystal clouds tend to have fuzzy, less distinct edges and appear whiter.
What is the most common type of
precipitation?
rain
_______ forms when rain drops fall through a layer
of air that is below freezing.
Sleet
How does snow form?
When water vapor in a cloud turns directly into ice
crystals.
How big must a piece of ice be to
be considered “hail”?
Greater than5mm in diameter
Explain how hail forms and grows in size.
1. Starts off as pellets of ice2. Grows as tossed by updrafts.
3. When they fall they become coated with water and as they rise the water
turns into an icy shell.4. This happens over and over again.
What happens to temperature as
you get higher in altitude
It gets colder
What is human body temperature
in F and C?
98.6 F and 37 C
What is freezing in F and C?
0˚C and 32˚F
What is boiling in F and C?
212˚F and 100˚C
What’s the difference
between sleet and hail?
Sleet forms when rain fall through a layer of the air that is below freezing. It’s
also smaller than 5mm in diameter.
What is needed for water to evaporate?
Energy from the sun
What happens to precipitation once it hits the Earth’s surface (one of 3
things)?
1. It evaporates immediately 2.
becomes groundwater or 3.
runoff.
What are the 3 main processes of the water cycle?
Evaporaton, condensation, precipitation
How do plants put water into the air?
transpiration
What 2 processes take water out of
the air?
Condensation and precipitation
The air is made up of 78% _____,
21% _____, and 1% _______
78% Nitrogen21% Oxyen
1% water vapor and dust particles
What is the opposite of
evaporation?
condensation
What is condensation?
Gas to a liquid
What is the formula used
when converting from F to C?
(F-32) x 0.555
Explain how condensation
forms on a glass of lemonade.
The warm air around the cold glass cools off and condenses into water droplets on the side of the glass.
