2- In a saturated atmosphere air which is forced to rise will:

Selecciona una de las siguientes respuestas posibles:

  • Tend to regain its former position if the ELR is less than the SALR.

  • Tend to regain its former position if the ELR is greater than the SALR.

  • Carry on rising if the ELR is less than the SALR.

  • Classified as stable air when the ELR is greater than the SALR.

3- The DALR is greater than the SALR because:

Selecciona una de las siguientes respuestas posibles:

  • Saturated vapour pressure increases with increasing temperature.

  • Convection is more active in dry than in moist air.

  • The rate of cooling of saturated air is reduced by the release of latent heat of condensation.

  • Because of the release of latent heat of evaporation.

7- Neutral equilibrium in the atmosphere occurs when:

Selecciona una de las siguientes respuestas posibles:

  • Any air which is displaced upwards remains in its new position, once the displacing force is removed. This displaced air having no tendency to rise further or to sink back down.

  • There is a thin stable layer at low levels but a much thicker unstable layer aloft.

  • There is a state in which there is high relative humidity at low levels and a low relative humidity at high levels.

  • There is a state in which there is a low relative humidity at low levels and a high relative humidity at high levels.

8- Which of the following statements is true?

Selecciona una de las siguientes respuestas posibles:

  • The tropopause is the dividing line between the stratosphere and the tropopause.

  • Stability increases as the environmental lapse rate decreases.

  • Heat is added to the environment by the evaporation of rain drops.

  • High surface temperatures and a plentiful supply of moisture are the only
    conditions required for the development of thunderstorms.
