2
Rain, sleet, snow, or hail
3
Precipitation
4
Water rises into the air in the form of a liquid and changes into a gas (vapor)
5
Evaporation
6
Continuing movement of water from oceans or other bodies of water, up into the air, down to the land, and back to the oceans or bodies of water again
7
Water cycle
8
Water vapor in the air cools and forms water droplets
9
Condensation
10
Water as an invisible gas
11
vapor
12
How are clouds formed?
13
Vapor cools in the air and changes to water droplets; many water droplets make up a cloud
14
A prefix meaning “middle level.”
15
Alto-
16
A prefix or suffix meaning “rain.”
17
Nimbo or Nimbus
18
A fluffy, large white cloud that may be flat on the bottom and billowed on top
19
Cumulus
20
Clouds that are made of ice crystals and are the highest clouds?
21
Cirrus
22
Describe a cumulonimbus cloud.
23
Clouds that billow upward, flat and dark on the bottom, storm cloud associated with rain, thunder, lightning, and tornadoes
24
Weather is a bunch of events that happen daily in the atmosphere all over the world. True or False
25
True
26
Define “climate.”
27
Average weather in a location over a long period of time
28
What is the difference between weather and climate?
29
Weather-events that happen daily in the atmosphere all over the world Climate-collection of weather patterns in your own part of the world over a period of time
30
Describe a desert climate.
31
Doesn’t get much rain
32
What weather tool is used to measure air temperature?
33
Thermometer
34
What weather tool measures air pressure?
35
Barometer
36
What instrument would tell if the wind is blowing from the northeast?
37
Weather Vane
38
What tool would measure the speed of the wind?
39
Anemometer
40
The humidity is 33% and the dew point is 32 degrees. What tool measures both of these?
41
Sling Psychrometer
42
Share, in order, the FOUR main parts of the water cycle (you may sing it if you want ).
43
Evaporation, Condensation, Precipitation, Accumulation
44
What is an example of evaporation?
45
A rain puddle disappears on the ground when the sun comes out Boiling water goes up into the air
46
What is an example of condensation?
47
A cloud forming Steam on a mirror Fog
48
What factors effect the speed of evaporation?
49
Air temperature Surface area How much humidity is in the air
50
On a cold winter day why are you able to see your breath? Why all of a sudden does it disappear?
51
Your warm breath meets the cold air and condenses (forms water droplets, it looks like a cloud). Then, the vapor cools and evaporates into the atmosphere.
