In which situation is advection fog most likely to form?
A warm, moist air mass on the windward side of mountains.
An air mass moving inland from the coast in winter.
A light breeze blowing colder air out to sea.
Low-level turbulence can occur and icing can become hazardous in which type of fog?
Rain-induced fog.
Steam fog
Upslope fog.
What situation is most conducive to the formation of radiation fog?
Warm, moist air over low, flatland areas on clear, calm nights.
Moist, tropical air moving over cold, offshore water.
The movement of cold air over much warmer water.
What clouds have the greatest turbulence?
Towering cumulus.
Cumulonimbus
Nimbostratus
The suffix "nimbus," used in naming clouds, means
a cloud with extensive vertical development.
a middle cloud containing ice pellets.
a rain cloud
The amount of water vapor which air can hold depends on the
stability of the air.
air temperature.
dewpoint
While operating around buildings, the Remote Pilot in Command should be aware of the creation of wind gusts that
enhance stability and imagery.
increase performance of an aircraft.
change rapidly in direction and speed causing turbulence.
What is meant by the term "dewpoint"?
The temperature at which condensation and evaporation are equal.
The temperature at which dew will always form.
The temperature to which air must be cooled to become saturated.
What cloud types would indicate convective turbulence?
Cirrus clouds.
Towering cumulus clouds
Nimbostratus clouds.
An air mass moving inland from the coast in winter is likely to result in
frost
fog
rain
Which conditions result in the formation of frost?
The temperature of the collecting surface is at or below freezing when small droplets of moisture fall on the surface.
The temperature of the collecting surface is at or below the dewpoint of the adjacent air and the dewpoint is below freezing
The temperature of the surrounding air is at or below freezing when small drops of moisture fall on the collecting surface.
What types of fog depend upon wind in order to exist?
Steam fog and ground fog.
Advection fog and upslope fog
Radiation fog and ice fog.
You are flying near mountains, and there are lenticular clouds. What kind of weather should you expect?
snow showers.
very rough air/turbulence
smooth weather
Convective circulation patterns associated with sea breezes are caused by
cool, dense air moving inland from over the water.
warm, dense air moving inland from over the water.
water absorbing and radiating heat faster than the land.
