Convection $600 According to the chart, which object will float when placed in water? • Copper • Plastic • Wood • Rubber
Convection $700 Convection is mainly caused by __________. • conduction • radiation • Earth’s core • induction
Convection $800 Deep ocean currents are driven by melting Antarctic ice which causes____________. • conduction • convection • radiation • precipitation
Convection $900 In a convection current what rises? • Cold air because it is more dense • Cold air because it is less dense • Warm air because it is more dense • Warm air because it is less dense
Convection $1000 As temperature of an object increases ________________. • density decreases • density increases • mass increases • mass decreases
Air Pressure/Fronts $600 High pressure is typically associated with ____________. • cool temperatures since it is less dense • cool temperatures since it is more dense • warm temperatures since it is less dense • warm temperatures since it is more dense
Air Pressure/Fronts $700 Which way are the winds blowing? • Northwest • Northeast • Southwest • Southeast
Air Pressure/Fronts $800 What type of front is pictured below? • Warm front • Cold front • Stationary front • Occluded front
Air Pressure/Fronts $900 Winds are caused by differences in _____________. • humidity • precipitation • turbulence • air pressure
Air Pressure/Fronts $1000 What is it called when cold air takes over warm air? • Cold front • Warm front • High pressure • Low pressure
Pictures $600 The position of the Earth relative to the sun’s rays in the diagram above shows that is __________. • summer throughout the Northern Hemisphere • daylight throughout the Northern Hemisphere • summer throughout the Southern Hemisphere • daylight through the Southern Hemisphere
Pictures $700 The diagram shows the orbit of the moon around Earth. Between which two points will the moon appear to change from a full moon to a third quarter moon? • Q and R • R and S • S and T • T and Q
Pictures $800 According to the map, where are thunderstorms most likely to occur? • In Seattle, because a cold front has moved through • In Chicago, because a cold front is approaching • In Boston, because a cold front is to the west of the city • In San Diego, because it is on the edge of a warm front
Pictures $900 Which two positions bring higher than normal high tides? • Positions 1 and 2 • Positions 1 and 3 • Positions 2 and 3 • Positions 3 and 4 Non-Response Grid
Pictures $1000 Which of the following will occur with low winter temperatures as the air mass moves from Canada to New York? • The northern air mass will mix with water vapor to form rain • The air mass will collide with water vapor, decreasing humidity • Water vapor will be removed from the air as it passes over the lake • Moisture collected from the lake may be released as snow over the cold land
Weather Map $600 What does the symbol shown to the right tell you about the weather at City A? • Cloudy skies with strong winds from the northwest • Cloudy skies with strong winds from the southeast • Clear skies with strong winds from the northwest • Clear skies with strong winds from the southeast
Weather Map $700 Which type of front is shown on the weather map? • Cold front moving southwestward • Cold front moving northeastward • Warm front moving southwestward • Warm front moving northeastward
Weather Map $800 Using the isobars in the map to the right, what is a true statement about the difference between city Y and city X? • Temperatures are lower in city X • Air pressure is higher in city X • Humidity is lower in city Y • Elevation is lower in city Y Y X
Weather Map $900 What will the weather be like for city X in a day? • Cold and rainy • Cold and sunny • Warm and rainy • Warm and sunny X Non-Response Grid
Weather Map $1000 What is city X now experiencing? • Rainy weather • Sunny weather • Cloudy weather • Snowy weather X
Ocean Currents $600 How is the east coast of Australia affected by surface currents? • Warmer because the surface current comes from the warm equator • Cooler because the surface current comes from the cool equator • Warmer because the surface current comes from the warm Poles • Cooler because the surface current comes from the cool Poles
Ocean Currents $700 The Coriolis effect causes ________. • conduction • Earth to spin • convection currents • winds to curve

Ocean Currents $900 How is the west coast of North America affected by surface currents? • Warmer because the surface current comes from the warm equator • Cooler because the surface current comes from the cool equator • Warmer because the surface current comes from the warm Poles • Cooler because the surface current comes from the cool Poles
Ocean Currents $1000 How do the oceans affect the global climate? • The ocean keeps the planet’s temperature cooler than it would otherwise be • The ocean keeps the planet’s overall temperature moderate, not too hot and not too cold • The ocean keeps the atmosphere’s winds faster than they would otherwise be • The ocean keeps the atmosphere’s winds slower than they would otherwise be
Junk Drawer $600 Hurricanes form when warm ocean water and unstable winds collide, which forces wind upward causing • Warm currents • Cool currents • High pressure • Low pressure
Junk Drawer $700 The phase of the moon you see depends on ________________. • where you are on Earth’s surface • how much of the sunlit side of the moon faces the Earth • how much of the moon’s surface is lit by the sun • whether or not there is an eclipse
Junk Drawer $800 If there is a full moon tonight, what moon phase will we see two weeks from now? • New moon • Full moon • Last quarter • First quarter
Junk Drawer $900 Which of the following is an indication of an advancing frontal boundary? • Temperature changes and cloud formation • Clear skies and few clouds • Stable temperatures and gentle breezes • Strong winds and low temperatures
