Resumen del Recurso

Pregunta 1

Pregunta

Respuesta
  • O cirrostratus.
  • O altostratus.
  • O castellanus.
  • O cumulonimbus

Pregunta 2

Pregunta
313 As a parcel of air rises, it cools by the process of:
Respuesta
  • O adiabatic expansion.
  • O expulsion of long-wave radiation.
  • O conductive mixing.
  • O freezing

Pregunta 3

Pregunta
314 The passage of a cold front means that the pressure:
Respuesta
  • O rises
  • O falls
  • O remains steady

Pregunta 4

Pregunta
316 The heat energy required to change state, but not temperature, is called:
Respuesta
  • O latent heat.
  • O transient heat.
  • O specific heat.
  • O melting heat

Pregunta 5

Pregunta
317 [Fig.16] When is advection fog most likely to form?
Respuesta
  • O When warm, moist air moves across a cold land surface and is cooled below its dewpoint temperature.
  • O When warm, moist air moves across a warm sea surface and is cooled to saturation.
  • O When dry, warm air moves across a cold sea causing evaporation and consequently condensation.
  • O None of those

Pregunta 6

Pregunta
318 When a wind changes direction from northly to north-westerly, it is said to have:
Respuesta
  • O backed in either hemisphere
  • O backed in the northern hemisphere and veered in the southern hemisphere.
  • O veered in either hemisphere.
  • O veered in the northern hemisphere and backed in the southern hemisphere.

Pregunta 7

Pregunta
319 You depart from aerodrome of Kastelorizo (LGKJ), (situated 474 feet above mean sea level (AMSL) with a QNH of 1011 hpa set on the altimeter subscale. The flight is conducted towards an area of low pressure and you fail to update the subscale setting (due to being non-radio). You anticipate a visual landing at the aero¬drome οf Kasteli(LGTL). What will the altimeter read when the aircraft lands at the destination aerodrome, which has an elevation of 1180 feet AMSL, if the QNH is 994 hpa?
Respuesta
  • O 1690
  • O 1750
  • O 950
  • O 1197

Pregunta 8

Pregunta
320 Density will be low when the:
Respuesta
  • O pressure is low and temperature is high.
  • O pressure is low and temperature is low.
  • O pressure is high and temperature is high.
  • O pressure is high and temperature is low

Pregunta 9

Pregunta
321 A cumulonimbus with an anvil, signifies that the thunderstorm is in the:
Respuesta
  • O decaying stage.
  • O cumulus stage.
  • O mature stage.
  • O none of those.

Pregunta 10

Pregunta
322 The force that causes a parcel of air to start moving from an area of high pressure to an area of low pressure is called the:
Respuesta
  • O pressure gradient force.
  • O Coriolis force.
  • O gradient force.
  • O centrifugal force

Pregunta 11

Pregunta
323 If maritime air is heated from below, as it moves from its source region, it is likely to become:
Respuesta
  • O unstable.
  • O conditionally unstable.
  • O stable.
  • O none of those.

Pregunta 12

Pregunta
324 The rate of decrease of temperature in rising saturated air is less than for rising unsaturated air. Why is this the case?
Respuesta
  • O Latent heat is released during the condensation process, and therefore warms the surrounding air, reducing the rate of temperature decrease.
  • O Saturated air rises more slowly, with a resultant decrease in the rate of cooling.
  • O Saturated air resists mixing with the cooler upper air.
  • O Saturated air is more dence

  • O d -20?C

Pregunta 14

Pregunta
326 The heating of the atmosphere is caused by:

  • O reflected radiation from the Earth's surface.
  • O direct short-wave radiation from the Sun.
  • O the latent heat of the water vapor

Pregunta 15

Pregunta
327 The determined surface temperature is +13°C and at 4000 feet it is +6°C. The state of the atmosphere may be described as:
Respuesta

  • O stable.
  • O neutrally stable

Pregunta 16

Pregunta

329 The approximate height (AMSL) of the tropopause in the 'average' ISA is:
Respuesta
  • O 36,000 feet.
  • O 24,000 feet.
  • O 60,000 feet.
  • O 11,000 feet
