Question

5. The term 'latent' means hidden 6. A water droplet that freezes releases heat and warms its surroundings. 7. One reason why water warms and cools more slowly than land is because water has a higher specific heat. 8. During the afternoon, the greatest temperature difference between the surface air and the air several feet above occurs on clear, calm afternoons. 9. In most areas, the warmest time of the day about 1.5 m above the ground occurs around noon. 10. On a hot, humid day, a good measure of how cool the human skin can become is the wet-bulb temperature 11. It is possible to change the relative humidity even if moisture is not added to or removed from the air. 12. If the Earth stopped rotating, surface winds would blow directly from higher pressure toward lower pressure. 13. Valleys are more susceptible to radiation fog than are hilltops. 14. Hail can fall from both cumulonimbus and nimbostratus clouds. 15. The Coriolis force is zero at the equator. 16. Cooling the air aloft will tend to make the atmosphere more unstable. 17. In a cloud, large droplets tend to fall faster than small droplets
