Questions in this quiz (10)
11- Maximum turbulence associated with the standing waves is likely to be:
- ATwo wavelengths down wind and just above the surface.
- BApproximately one wavelength down wind of, and approximately level with, the top of the ridge.
- CJust below the tropopause above the ridge.
- DDown the lee side of the ridge and along the surface.
22- For the formation of mountain waves, the wind above the level of the ridge should:
- ADecrease or even reverse direction.
- BIncrease initially, then decrease.
- CIncrease with little change in direction.
- DIncrease and then reverse in direction.
33- When flying in IMC in a region close to a range of hills 2000 ft high, in stable air and with wind direction at right angles to the axis of the range of hills, which of the following is probably the most dangerous practice:
- AFlying towards the hills, into the wind, at flight level 65.
- BFlying parallel to the hills on the downwind side at flight level 40.
- CFlying towards the hills downwind at flight level 55.
- DFlying parallel to the hills on the upwind side at flight level 40.
44- Which of the following statements referring to Jet Strems is correct:
- ACAT associated with jet streams is probably associated with the rapid wind shear in the vicinity of the jet.
- BThe maximum windspeed in a Jet Stream increases with increase of height up to the tropopause and remains constant thereafter.
- CThe core of a Jet Stream is usually located just below the tropopause in the colder air mass.
- DThe rate of change of windspeed at any given level is usually greatest ont the warmer side of the jet.
