Question 1: 10 points
What is a vortex?
The movement of a liquid or gas in a spiral around a central axis (calm center of air)
Question 1: 10 points
What is a vortex?
Question 2: 20 points
How do hurricanes form?
Question 2: 20 points
How do hurricanes form?
Warm, moist air evaporates over tropical waters, creating a low pressure system that is moved by trade winds and
the rotation of the earth.
Question 3: 30 pointsIn Inquiry 3.1 (soil, water, lamp),
how did you set up the lab to make sure it was a fair experiment?
Question 3: 30 pointsIn Inquiry 3.1 (soil, water, lamp), how
did you set up the lab to make sure it was a fair experiment?
Same amount of soil and water, same distance from the lamp
Question 4: 40 pointsLook at the graph: What was the temperature of soil after 5 minutes?
Question 4: 40 pointsLook at the graph: What was the temperature of soil after 5 minutes?
24.2°C
Question 5: 50 pointsDescribe how the water cycle
relates to cloud formation.
Question 5: 50 pointsDescribe how the water cycle
relates to cloud formation.The water on earth’s surface gains energy and
evaporates into a gas (water vapor). As it rises, it begins to lose energy and condenses into
liquid water. The condensed liquid water collects on dust particles in the air, forming a cloud
Question 1: 10 pointsWhat causes a vortex to form?
Question 1: 10 points
Uneven heating of the earth’s surfaces, the force of gravity, and the rotation of the earth.
What causes a vortex to form?
Question 2: 20 pointsHow are hurricanes and tornadoes alike?
Question 2: 20 pointsHow are hurricanes and tornadoes alike?
Both involve rotating winds, a vortex, and cause
catastrophic damage.
Question 3: 30 pointsIn Inquiry 3.1, which surface heated faster: soil or water?
Question 3: 30 pointsIn Inquiry 3.1, which surface heated faster: soil or water?
Soil heated faster
Question 4: 40 pointsWhat states make up
Tornado Alley?
Question 4: 40 pointsWhat states make up
Tornado Alley?
Texas, Kansas, Oklahoma, Missouri
Question 5: 50 pointsHow do some deep ocean
currents form?
Question 5: 50 pointsHow do some deep ocean
currents form?They form from convection, which results from the
uneven heating of the earth. The water near the Equator is warmed by more direct sunlight, which causes it to rise and move towards the poles, where
it cools and sinks, flowing back towards the Equator.
Question 1: 10 pointsHow does air move above a heated (warm) surface?
Question 1: 10 pointsHow does air move above a heated (warm) surface?
Air becomes warm, less dense, and rises.
Question 2: 20 pointsHow are hurricanes and
tornadoes different?
Question 2: 20 pointsHow are hurricanes and
tornadoes different?
-Hurricanes form over water, tornadoes form over land.-Tornado winds: 350 km/h, Hurricane winds: 119-250 km/h-Hurricanes can last a week or longer-Hurricanes are huge storms, tornadoes are smaller and form from storms
Question 3: 30 pointsIn Inquiry 3.1, which surface held
its heat longer: soil or water?
Question 3: 30 pointsIn Inquiry 3.1, which surface held
its heat longer: soil or water?
Water held its heat longer
Question 4: 40 pointsWhy are there so many
tornadoes in Tornado Alley?
Question 4: 40 pointsWhy are there so many
tornadoes in Tornado Alley?
Cold, dry air from Canada meets warm, moist air from the Gulf of Mexico.
Question 5: 50 pointsHow do winds affect ocean water?
Question 5: 50 pointsHow do winds affect ocean water?
The direction that the winds blow determines the direction
of the surface currents.
Question 1: 10 pointsHow does air move
above a cool surface?
Question 1: 10 pointsHow does air move
above a cool surface?
Air becomes cool, more dense, and sinks.
Question 2: 20 pointsWhat role does the sun play in
the weather on the earth?
Question 2: 20 pointsWhat role does the sun play in
the weather on the earth?
The sun heats the earth unevenly. It is the uneven heating of the earth’s surface that causes
temperatures to change, wind to blow, storms to develop, and rain to fall.
Question 3: 30 pointsOn the 3.1 graph, what did the
soil curve look like? Why?
Question 3: 30 pointsOn the 3.1 graph, what did the
soil curve look like? Why?
Steep rise and steep fall. The soil heated very fast, and it lost its heat very fast.
Question 4: 40 points
When does a sea breeze occur?
Question 4: 40 points
When does a sea breeze occur?
Sea breezes form during the day when the air over the water is cool
Question 5: 50 pointsHow do ocean currents affect air temperatures around the world?
Question 5: 50 pointsHow do ocean currents affect air temperatures around the world?
Warm ocean currents from the Equator bring warm water and warm temperatures towards the poles, and cold water from the poles brings cooler
temperatures back towards the Equator.
Question 1: 10 pointsWhat happens when hot
air meets cold air?
Question 1: 10 pointsWhat happens when hot
air meets cold air?
Cold air sinks, warm air rises above it, causing unstable conditions, such as
thunderstorms that can produce tornadoes.
Question 2: 20 points
What is a convection current?
Question 2: 20 points
What is a convection current?
Circulating flow of air or water (fluids) resulting from temperature differences. It is a form of energy transfer in a fluid.
Question 3: 30 pointsOn the 3.1 graph, what did the water curve look like? Why?
Question 3: 30 pointsOn the 3.1 graph, what did the water curve look like? Why?
Not very steep rise, and almost no fall (flat line). The water heated slowly, but
it loses its heat very slowly.
Question 4: 40 pointsDescribe what happens
during a sea breeze?
Question 4: 40 pointsDescribe what happens
during a sea breeze?
The air over the warm land becomes warm, less dense, and rises. It moves over the cool water,
where it cools, becomes more dense, and sinks. It then moves back over land.
Question 5: 50 pointsWhat are some labs/activities that
showed convection and how did they show convection?
Question 5: 50 pointsWhat are some labs/activities that
showed convection and how did they show convection?
Multiple examples. Make sure you write them down WITH an explanation
