- Q2An amount of air that moves together is called?air pressuresurrounding airsurface water.air parcel30s
- Q3An air parcel at the surface is warmer and has more energy, moves higher, loses energy would produce more rainfall.FalseTrue30s
- Q4Which of these is NOT a factor that could cause more rainfall?air parcel warmer than surrounding airhigher water vaporNo surface water such as a lakeair parcel moving higher30s
- Q5What is the main cause for the different air temperatures?different types of thermometers.sun transfer energy directly to air.land and ground transfer same amount of energysun's energy transfers different amount of energy to ground.30s
- Q6How cold could a bowl of soup left out get?Only as cold as the temperature of the roomas cold as it wantscolder than the airIt never gets cold.30s
- Q7Why is there water on the outside of the glass?Someone spit on the outside.Liquid in cup moves through the glassThe ice moves outside to the glass.water vapor in the air condenses to liquid water.30s
