Large scale movement of temperature caused by differences in air pressure

A hurricane forms over the Atlantic Ocean. When it hits land and comes ashore, its wind speed decrease significantly. This happens because the hurricane:

no longer gains energy from warm ocean water

gains more water from the flooded land than the ocean

meets a stronger hurricane moving from land

In 2011, Typhoon Nesat struck the Philippines and caused widespread flooding. After hitting the Philippines, Typhoon Nesat was predicted to hit the large city of Hanoi, Vietnam. If Typhoon Nesat had continued along the same path, which development would most likely have reduced its strength before it hit Hanoi? (8.10C)

Cool water moving into the sea east of Hanoi

The formation of a low-pressure area south of Bangkok

The formation of a high-pressure area south of Bangkok

Warm water moving into the sea east of Hanoi

Explain which air mass affects the weather in North Carolina.

Air mass #2 brings warm, moist weather to North Carolina, because it is a maritime tropical air mass.

Air mass #1 brings warm, moist weather to North Carolina, because it is a continental polar air mass.

Air mass #1 brings cold, dry weather to North Carolina, because it is a maritime tropical air mass.

Air mass #2 brings cold, dry weather to North Carolina, because it is a continental polar air mass.

In some years there are more hurricanes than usual. This is probably because

the ocean is warmer than usual.

there are more windy days than usual.

the gravitational pull of the Moon is stronger.

Which explains the high precipitation levels in areas near the equator?

At the equator, warmer conditions create an increase in evaporation. Evaporation leads to more precipitation.

The equator has very little wind, which causes rain-filled clouds to remain still for longer periods of time

The equator has stronger winds that cause clouds filled with precipitation to burst, resulting in precipitation

At the equator, warmer conditions create a decrease in evaporation. Less evaporation leads to more precipitation.

How does the Gulf Stream impact hurricane development off the coast of the southeastern United States?

Warmer water from the Gulf Stream increases the speed and intensity of the hurricane.

Colder water from the Gulf Stream increases the speed and intensity of the hurricane.

Colder water from the Gulf Stream decreases the speed and intensity of the hurricane.

Warmer water from the Gulf Stream decreases the speed and intensity of the hurricane.

a line where two different air masses meet

where warm air is cooling at earth's surface

a line where hot and cold air are separating

where cold air is rising and forming rain clouds

The ozone is in the stratosphere layer of the atmosphere. The purpose of the ozone is

To protect earth from the harmful solar radiation

To allow satellites to circle the earth

What is the Coriolis effect?

wind curves across Earth's surface because of Earth's rotation

wind curves across Earth's surface because of Earth's magnetism

global wind patterns occur because of sinking air

global wind patterns occur because of weather
