Microbursts have no effect on aviation.

They cause turbulence and can lead to dangerous wind shear.

They improve flight stability.

They only occur over oceans.

Which of the following is true about rime ice?

It forms at higher temperatures than clear ice

It forms at lower temperatures than clear ice

It forms at the same temperature as clear ice

Answer explanation

Rime ice forms when supercooled water droplets freeze on contact with surfaces, typically at lower temperatures than clear ice, which forms from freezing water at higher temperatures. Thus, rime ice forms at lower temperatures.
