  1. Weather Instruments

  2. Anemometer • This is used to measure wind speed.

  3. Thermometer • This is used to measure temperature. • Temperature is the kinetic energy of the atoms.

  4. Psychrometer • This gives a dry bulb and a wet bulb temperature that are then used to determine relative humidity and dewpoint

  5. Psychrometer for Dewpoint

  6. Psychrometer for Relative Humidity

  7. Barometer • This measures air pressure.

  8. Weather Instrument Quiz A meteorologist would use a ______________ to determine the air pressure.

  9. Weather Instrument Quiz A meteorologist would use a _Barometer_ to determine the air pressure.

  10. Weather Instrument Quiz Wet a dry bulb temperatures come from a Sling Psychrometer and allow one to determine _____________________.

  11. Weather Instrument Quiz Wet a dry bulb temperatures come from a Sling Psychrometer and allow one to determine _Relative Humidity and Dew Point_.

  12. Weather Instrument Quiz Someone called the weather station and complained that the wind speed given on the television weather was incorrect. That individual must have had an _____________ to verify the wind speed.

  13. Weather Instrument Quiz Someone called the weather station and complained that the wind speed given on the television weather was incorrect. That individual must have had an _anemometer_ to verify the wind speed.

  14. Weather Instrument Quiz A physicist stated that the internal kinetic energy of a material was very high. By this, she meant that the material was (hot, cold)

  15. Weather Instrument Quiz A physicist stated that the internal kinetic energy of a material was very high. By this, she meant that the material was (hot, cold)

  16. Weather Instrument Quiz What is the Relative Humidity if the difference between the wet bulb and the dry bulb is 0 and the temperature is 10?
