What is the main cause of wind? (5 points)
Increases in the global temperature
Severe weather
Rapid temperature changes in ocean currents
The difference in air pressures

What will most likely happen when a warmer air mass exists above a polar ice sheet? (5 points)
The temperature of the ice sheet will be lowered.
Heat will be transferred from the air mass to the ice.
The air mass will exert high pressure and rise upwards.
Air higher up in the mass will become cooler than air lower down.

The image below shows a certain type of global wind: (5 points)

The Earth is shown as a circle. Equator is shown and labeled at 0 degrees. 30 degrees north and south latitudes are shown and labeled. 60 degrees north and south latitudes are shown and labeled. Curved arrows are shown pointing from 30 degrees north and south latitudes towards the equator.

What best describes these winds?
Polar easterlies caused by air above poles being relatively warmer
Polar easterlies caused by air above poles being relatively cooler
Trade winds caused by air above equator being relatively warmer
Trade winds caused by air above equator being relatively cooler

Which weather event is most likely to occur if there are warmer than average ocean waters in the Pacific? (5 points)
Flooding in the southern United States due to El Niño
Drought in the southern United States due to La Niña
Wet conditions in the Pacific Northwest due to El Niño
Weak trade winds due to La Niña

Study the following ocean currents map.

An ocean currents map is shown. On the map the locations for San Francisco, California and Norfolk, Virginia are marked. There is a looping current from the north past San Francisco and a looping current from the south near Norfolk

Which statement is most likely correct about the average temperatures in San Francisco, California as compared to Norfolk, Virginia? (5 points)

It is higher in Norfolk because of the cool ocean currents from the north.
It is higher in Norfolk because of the warm ocean currents from the south.
It is lower in San Francisco because of the cool ocean currents from the south.
It is lower in San Francisco because of the warm ocean currents from the north.

What type of climate is most likely expected in locations between the poles and the equator that have high amounts of water vapor in the air? (5 points)
Dry
Low humidity
No rain
Seasonal storms

Which is the best time to apply sunscreen? (5 points)
Before going to bed
Just after going out in the sun
1 hour after going out in the sun
30 minutes before going out in the day

Why should extra precautions against sun exposure be taken when boating? (5 points)
Water cancels out most sunscreens.
UV rays are blocked over land, but not over water.
The heat of the water increases potential skin damage.
The water reflects UV rays, adding to exposure.

Suppose that a cylindrical tank 6 meters high with a radius of 2 meters is filled to the rim with water. the tank is buried so that the top of the tank is 1 meter below ground level. the space above the tank is not filled with water. calculate how much work needs to be done by a pump to pump the water out of the tank up to ground level. (the water weighs 9,800 newtons per cubic meter.)
