OAC Review

Murphy and Malik are the same distance from the equator, and they are both near the ocean. How does the air temperature of Murphy compare to Malik? Why?

• The air at Murphy is colder than Malik. Moving air with only a little energy turns and follows the coast toward Murphy. Moving air with a lot of energy turns and follows the coast toward Malik

• The air at Murphy is colder than Malik. The winds push ocean water that turns and follows the coasts. Energy is transferred from the air to the ocean at Murphy and energy is transferred from the ocean to the air at Malik

• The air at Murphy is colder than Malik. The winds push ocean water that turns and follows the coasts. A lot of energy is transferred from the ocean to the air at Malik. Only a little energy is transferred from the ocean to the air at Murphy.

• Murphy is the same as Malik. Both locations are the same distance from the equator. The winds push the ocean water, and it turns to follow the coast past both locations, so the same amount of energy is transferred to the air

Why is it possible for to locations that are the same distance from the equator to have different temperatures?

• Magic

• Currents passing by those locations have different temperatures

• The equator is moving making the temperatures rise and fall

• It is not possible the temperatures are always the same

Alesund and Khatyrka are the same distance from the equator and they are both near the ocean. Use the information on the map to answer these questions: How does the air temperature of Alesund compare to the air temperature of Khatyrka? Why? The air at Alesund is

• the same as Khatyrka. Even though the ocean water at each location is a different temperature, the same amount of energy is transferred to the air at both locations.

• the same as Khatyrka. They are both near moving ocean water, so the same amount of energy is transferred to the air at both locations.

• warmer than Khatyrka. At Alesund, energy is transferred from the ocean to the air. At Khatyrka, energy is transferred from the air to the ocean.

• warmer than Khatyrka. At Alesund, a lot of energy is transferred from the ocean to the air. At Khatyrka, only a little energy is transferred from the ocean to the air.

Delta and Alpha are the same distance from the equator, and they are both near the ocean. Using the information in the map, how does the air temperature of Delta compare to the air temperature of Alpha? Why? The air at Delta is

• the same as Alpha. Both locations are the same distance from the equator. The winds push the ocean water, and it turns to follow the coast in both locations, so the same amount of energy is transferred to the air.

• warmer than Alpha. Moving air with a lot of energy turns and follows the coast toward Delta; moving air with only a little energy turns and follows the coast toward Alpha.

• warmer than Alpha. The winds push ocean water that turns and follows the coasts. Energy is transferred from the ocean to the air at Delta and energy is transferred from the air to the ocean at Alpha.

• warmer than Alpha. The winds push ocean water that turns and follows the coasts. A lot of energy is transferred from the ocean to the air at Delta, and only a little energy is transferred from the ocean to the air at Alpha.

Madison and Oxford are the same distance from the equator and they are both near the ocean. Use the information on the map to answer these questions: How does the air temperature of Madison compare to the air temperature of Oxford? Why? The air at Madison is

• warmer than Oxford. At Madison, a lot of energy is transferred from the ocean to the air. At Oxford, only a little energy is transferred from the ocean to the air.

• warmer than Oxford. At Madison, energy is transferred from the ocean to the air. At Oxford, energy is transferred from the air to the ocean.

• the same as Oxford. They are both near moving ocean water, so the same amount of energy is transferred to the air at both locations.

• the same as Oxford. Even though the ocean water at each location is a different temperature, the same amount of energy is transferred to the air at both locations.

Mowe Bay and Townsville are the same distance from the equator, and they are both near the ocean. Using the information in the map, how does the air temperature of Mowe Bay compare to the air temperature of Townsville? Why? The air at Mowe Bay is

• the same as Townsville. Both locations are the same distance from the equator. The winds push the ocean water, and it turns to follow the coast past both locations, so the same amount of energy is transferred to the air.

• colder than Townsville. Moving air with only a little energy turns and follows the coast toward Mowe Bay. Moving air with a lot of energy turns and follows the coast toward Townsville.

• colder than Townsville. The winds push ocean water that turns and follows the coasts. Energy is transferred from the air to the ocean at Mowe Bay and energy is transferred from the ocean to the air at Townsville.

• colder than Townsville. The winds push ocean water that turns and follows the coasts. Only a little energy is transferred from the ocean to the air at Mowe Bay; more energy is transferred from the ocean to the air at Townsville.
