How does wind effect a rainstorm?

• Wind keeps the air parcel closer to the surface so it gains more energy
• Wind pushes the air parcel even higher in the troposphere causing it to lose more energy

• Wind pushes the air parcel even higher in the troposphere causing it to gain more energy

• Wind keeps the air parcel closer to the surface so it loses more energy

This image shows two different cities that are both located near a body of water. Which city will experience more rainfall and why?

• City 1 will experience more rainfall because there is a small amount of surface water.

• City 1 will experience more rainfall because there is a large amount of surface water.

• City 2 will experience more rainfall because there is a small amount of surface water.

• City 2 will experience more rainfall because there is a large amount of surface water.

The troposphere is ____________ at the surface and___________ at its highest point.

• warm; stays the same
• coldest; warmest
• warmest; coldest
• stays the same; warm

The higher into the troposphere the air parcel rises__________

• the more energy the air parcel loses = bigger cloud and storm
• the more energy the air parcel loses = smaller cloud and storm
• the more energy the air parcel gains = bigger cloud and storm
• the less energy the air parcel gains= smaller cloud and storm

Angel left a cup of hot chocolate in a cool room. His mother tells him that his hot chocolate will get cold if he forgets to drink it. How cold could it get?

• Colder than the temperature of the room. It will keep cooling down for as long as he leaves it in the room.
• Only a little colder. It started out much hotter, so it will stop cooling down before it reaches the same temperature of the room.
• Only a little colder. It will stop cooling down when its temperature is about halfway between its starting temperature and the temperature of the room.
• Only as cold as the temperature of the room. It will stop cooling down when it is exactly the same temperature as the room.

Sofia put a bottle of water on her desk and left the room. When she came back, she found water drops on the outside of the bottle. Where did the water on the outside of the bottle come from?

• The air in the room. Oxygen in the air turned into liquid water.
• The air in the room. Water vapor in the air turned into liquid water.
• Water inside the bottle. The water leaked through the bottle.
• Water inside the bottle. The water moved along the surface of the bottle
