8 7 than on nights that are cloudy and windy 1 Dew is most likely to form on nights that are clear and calm 2 3 The name given to a liquid drop of dew that freezes when the air temperature drops below freezing is frozen dew 4 5 The cooling of the ground to produce dew is mainly the 6 result of radiational cooling 4 For frozen dew to form all of the above the air temperature needs to drop to freezing or below 5 Suppose it is a winter night and at about 10 p m the air temperature is at or below freezing radiation fog develops If the air continues to cool 9 10 cools to the dew point temperature and a thick 11 12 during the night in 5 hours the dew point temperature 13 will probably decrease as the air becomes drier Decrease 14 as the air becomes drier 15 6 particles that serve as surfaces on which water vapor 16 may condense are called condensation nuclei 17 7 frost forms when all of the above when the dew point 18 19 8 On a humid day causes salty potato chips left 20 outside in an uncovered bowl to turn soggy the attraction 21 of water by hygroscopic condensation nuclei 22 9 frost typically forms on the inside of a windowpane rather than the outside because there is more water 23 24 vapor touching the inside of the pane 25 10 condensatrion nuclei may be particles of dust 26 11 Condensation nuclei are important in the atmosphere 27 because without them condensation would not occur easily in 28 atmosphere 29 12 Under what circumstances could the relative humidity 30 exceed 00 percent without producing fog there are no 31 condensation nuclei present 32 13 wet haze forms when the relative humidity is less than 33 100 34 14 on a cold winter morning the air near the surface is full 35 of smoke particles if fog should form in this air it will 36 probably that forms in cleaner air be thicker than 37 fog 38 15 high fog is also called stratus 39 16 when radiation fog burns off the fog tends to 40 dissipate from bottom up 45 41 17 when fog burns off it evaporates 42 18 On a clear night the minimum temperature drops to 43 34 F The following night fog forms early in the evening 44 It is a good bet the minimum temperature will not be as low because of the enhancement of the greenhouse effect by the fog cloud 46 47 19 Winter fog in the Central Valley region of California is 48 mainly due to radiational cooling 49 20 On a cold winter morning the most likely place for 50 51 21 the fog that forms along the pacific coastline of north 52 america is mainly which type advection fog 53 22 fog that forms off the coast of newfoundland is mainly a radiation fog to form is in a valley form of advection fog fog is very cold to form at the beaches because of the surface winds 54 55 23 along an irregular coastline advection fog is more likely 56 57 and air converging rising 58 24 If fog is forming at Denver Colorado and the wind is 59 blowing from the east then the fog is most likely upslope 60 61 25 exhaled breath from your mouth can condense when it 62 63 26 When you see your breath on a cold morning the air 64 65 27 The use of helicopters to mix the air and disperse radiation fog at airports is effective provided that the 66 fog is a shallow radiation fog with a relatively low liquid water temperature can be above or below freezing 67 68 content 69 28 On a cold calm autumn morning the formation of fog 70 above a relatively warm lake would most likely be steam 71 fog 75 77 72 29 which fog does not necessarily form in air that is 73 cooling evaporation fog 74 30 frontal fog most commonly forms as raindrops fall into a layer of warm colder 76 31 Fog that most often forms as warm rain falls into a cold layer of surface air is called evaporation 78 32 clouds are classified by their appearance 79 33 a reasonably successful method of dispersing cold fog is 80 81 34 fog is a major hazard to aviation true to seed the fog with dry ice liquid water still exists in the clouds false 82 35 which association below is not correct altostratus high 83 cloud 84 36 at which city might you be able to observe cirrus clouds 85 at an altitude of 3000 m above the surface barrow alaska 86 37 even at high elevations where cirrus cloud are found 87 88 38 which association below is not correct altocumulus 89 castellanus resemble little castles 90 39 which cloud is least likely to produce precipitation that 91 92 40 in middle latitudes which cloud will have the highest 93 base cirrostratus 94 41 a halo around the moon means that cirrostratus clouds are 95 present and the clouds overhead are high clouds 96 42 which cloud type is composed of use crystals and can 97 cause a halo to form around the sun or moon cirrostratus 98 43 which of the following associations is not correct 99 cumulus congestus anviltop 100 44 light or moderate but steady precipitin is most often associated with reaches the ground cirrocumulus clouds nimbostratus 101 45 in middle latitudes which cloud will have the lowest base stratocumulus 102 46 which of the following cloud types would be found at the highest elevation above the earths surface cirrocumulus 103 47 which of the following pairs of cloud types could be very similar in appearance altocumulus and cirrocumulus 104 48 which clouds often appear in parallel waves or bands altocumulus 105 49 a mackerel sky describes what kind of cloud cirrocumulus 106 50 when viewed from the surface the smallest individual cloud elements are observed with which cloud cirrocumulus 107 Advection fog is often observed along the Pacific coast during summer as westerly winds carry moist air 108 toward the shore The fog forms because the surface water near the coast is then surface water farther offshore much colder 109 an altocumulus in the form of parallel waves would be described as an altocumulus undulatus 110 another name for a mother of pearl cloud is nacreous clouds 111 an anvil shaped top is most often associated with cumulonimbus 112 At middle latitudes the base of an altostratus or altocumulus cloud would generally be found between 6500 and 23000 feet 113 cirrus clouds are composed primarily of ice particles 114 the cloud like streamer often seen forming behind an aircraft flying at high altitude is called contrail 115 clouds that appear as bag like sacks hanging from beneath a cloud are 116 clouds that have a characteristics lenshaped appearance are referred to as mammatus lenticular clouds 117 detached clouds of delicate and fibrous appearance without shading usually white in color and sometimes of a silky appearance are
