Question

A. FIGURE 11. The cold and dry air mass is represented by (a) c (b) A (c) D (d) E (e) 8 12. The weather at location is best described as partly cloudy, windy, very cold, northwesterly winds, rising air pressure (a) 1 (b) 3 (c) 2 (d) 4 13. The weather at location is best described as partly cloudy, mild, southwesterly winds, falling air pressure (a) 1 (b) 3 (c) 2 (d) 4 14. Which city (number) on the map would most likely have the lowest dew point temperature? (a) 4 (b) 3 (c) 2 (d) 1 15. Which city (number) on the map would most likely have the highest dew point temperature? (a) 4 (b) 3

Explanation / Answer

Solution :

11.C

E, A, B, D are not dry but moisture carrying. The C wind blows from higher latitude to lower lattitude. hence it is cold wind. Also, it blows from the interior of continental, not a oceanic breeze. hence it is dry.

12. B - region 3

Only C and D are northwesterly winds. out of these two, C are the very cold winds. Hence the region 3 rising air pressure and very cold.

13. C - region 2

Regions 4 and 2 experience south westerly winds of E and A. 2 is - falling air pressure, partly cloudy and mild wind.

14. B- region 3. In cold and dry conditions, the dew point is low.

15. A - region 4  warm and humid conditions, dew point is high.
