Question 1: Thermals

Answer:

Strong thermals have proportionately increased sink in the air between them Question 2: How long do the maximum intensity winds last in an individual microburst?

Answer:

• to 4 minutes

Question 3: Troposphere

Answer:

part of the atmosphere where most weather occurs. It's the layer from the surface to an average altitude of 7 miles.

Question 4: When can advection fog appear?

Answer:

Suddenly during the day or night, and it is more persistent than radiation fog

Question 5: Trough

Answer:

Low pressure area rising air Question 6: What is an operational consideration regarding actual air temperature and dewpoint temperature spread?

Answer:

The temperature spread decreases as the relative humdiity increases Question 7: If clouds form as a result of very stable, moist air being forced to ascend a mountain slope, the clouds will be

Answer:

stratus type with little vertical development and little or on turbulence

Question 8: Weather Fronts (1)

Answer:

• Frontal waves normally form on slow-moving cold fronts or stationary fronts.

Question 9: Standard Pressure

Answer:

29.92 in. Hg (1013.2 mb) Question 10: The conditions most favorable to wave formation over mountainous areas are a layer of

Answer:

stable air at mountaintop altitude and a wind of at least 15 to 25 knots blowing across the ridge Question 11: The most frequent type of ground or surface based temperature inversion is that produced by

Answer:

terrestrial radiation on a clear, relatively still night

Question 12: Fog associated with a warm front is a result of saturation due to

Answer:

evaporation of precipitation

Question 13: What is the expected duration of an individual microburst?

Answer:

Seldom longer than 15 minutes from the time the burst strikes the ground until disipation

Question 14: Name a true statement regarding a cold front occlusion

Answer:

The air ahead of the warm front is warmer than the air behind the overtaking cold front

Question 15: Weather Fronts (3)

Answer:

In a cold front occlusion, the air ahead of the warm front is warmer than the air behind the overtaking cold front. An occlusion is composed of two fronts as a cold front overtakes a warmer front.Question 16: When flying low over hilly terrain, ridges, or mountain ranges, the greatest potential danger from turbulent air currents will usually be encountered on the

Answer:

leeward side when flying with the wind Question 17: What are the standard temperature and pressure values for mean sea level?

Answer:

59 F and 1013.2 mb

Question 18: One of the best visual indications of a thermal is a

Answer:

smooth cumulus cloud with a concave base

Question 19: Dew Point

Answer:

the temperature at which the air will have 100% relative humidity/be saturated

Question 20: Advection fog is formed as a result of

Answer:

moist air moving over a colder surface

Question 21: Stable Air Characteristics

Answer:

• Stratiform clouds
• Smooth air
• Fog
• Continuous precipitation
• Restriction visibility haze and smoke

Question 22: Standard Temperature

Answer:

Sea level is 15 degrees C (59 F)

Question 23: Precipitation Induced Fog

Answer:

Is formed as a result of saturation due to evaporation of precipitation. Associated with warm fronts

Question 24: Radiation fog is most likely to occur under what conditions?

Answer:

High humidity during the early evening, cool cloudless night with light winds, and favorable topography

Question 25: Fog

Answer:

Associated with warm front of saturation due to evaporation of precipitation. Temperature dewpoint seperation less than 5 degrees F.

Question 26: Unstable Air Characteristics

Answer:

• Cumuliform clouds
• Turbulent air
• Good visibility except blowing sand or snow
• Showery precipitation

Question 27: What are the minimum requirements for the formation of a thunderstorm?

Answer:

Sufficient moisture, an unstable lapse rate, and lifting action
