  2. JEOPARDY REVIEW

  3. 1) Answer each of the following questions in order of #1, #2, and #3: 2) 3)

  4. Expanding Universe  Hubble’s Law (Edwin Hubble, 1889-1953) • To help visualize the nature of the universe, imagine a loaf of raisin bread dough that has been set out to rise for a few hours. As the dough doubles in size, so does the distance between all the raisins. Those objects located father apart move away from each other more rapidly.

  5. 81) Identify the two-letter weather map symbol for the dry, cold air mass over North Dakota.

  6. Which station model shows the correct form for indicating a northwest wind at 25 knots and an air pressure of 1023.7 mb?

  7. 1) The arrows on which map best represent the direction of surface winds associated with this low-pressure system? • 2) If this weather system • follows a normal storm • track, the low-pressure • center (L) will generally • move toward the • Northeast • Northwest • Southeast • Southwest

  8. 1) NY is located at a latitude of about 43º N 2)

  9. Why does a comet’s tail always stream away from the Sun? • Solar wind generated from the Sun always pushes the gases in a comets tail away from the Sun.

  10. 1) 2)

  11. DAILY DOUBLE 1) 2)

  12. Name the 3 types of galaxies that we know of in the universe. • Spiral galaxies • Elliptical galaxies • Irregular galaxies What type of galaxy is our own Milky Way? • The Milky Way is a Spiral Galaxy

  13. Describe the process of radioactive decay. • During radioactive decay, the atoms of one element break down to form atoms of another element. In the process of radioactive decay, the atoms of the element release particles and energy- this is known as radiation.

  14. The warm, moist air is lessdense, and will therefore rise above the moredense cold, dry air. The warm, moist air that is rising cools to the dewpoint temp. and water vapor begins to condense, forming a cloud. The mT air mass most likely originated in the Gulf of Mexico, where it is warm and moist.

  15. 1) What type of front extends eastward from the low-pressure center? Occluded Front 2) Complete the weather data table below for the current weather conditions in Albany, NY 38º F 38º F 100% NW 25 knots rain 100%

  16. Which cross section best represents the air masses, air movement, clouds, and precipitation occurring behind and ahead of the warm front located between stations A and B. • Which type of weather is usually • associated with a cP air mass, as • shown near weather station C? • Moist and cool • Moist and warm • Dry and cool • Dry and warm
