    (407) Wind direction is determined by averaging the direction over how many minutes?

    • A.

      1.

    • B.

      2.

    • C.

      5.

    • D.

    Correct Answer
    B. 2.
    Explanation
    Wind direction is determined by averaging the direction over 2 minutes. This means that meteorologists observe the direction of the wind for a period of 2 minutes and calculate the average direction during that time. This helps to provide a more accurate representation of the wind direction, as wind can often change direction frequently. By averaging the direction over a short period of time, meteorologists can better understand the overall wind patterns and make more informed weather predictions.

    Rate this question:

  • 19. 

    (407) How many degrees of direction change must occur to be classified as a wind shift?

    • A.

      10.

    • B.

      45.

    • C.

      90.

    • D.

      180.

    Correct Answer
    B. 45.
    Explanation
    A wind shift refers to a change in the direction of the wind. In order to be classified as a wind shift, there must be a certain degree of direction change. The correct answer, 45 degrees, suggests that a wind shift occurs when there is a change in wind direction of 45 degrees or more. This means that the wind has shifted significantly from its previous direction, indicating a change in weather patterns or atmospheric conditions.

    Correct Answer
    A. Sky condition.
    Explanation
    Cloud height is one part of a more complex forecasting fundamental called sky condition. This means that when predicting the weather, it is important to consider the height of the clouds in the sky. Sky condition refers to the overall state of the sky, including the presence and type of clouds. By understanding the sky condition, forecasters can make more accurate predictions about the weather and its potential impact on visibility, structure, and the horizon. Therefore, sky condition is the correct answer in this context.

    Rate this question:

  • 24. 

    (410) What piece of meteorological equipment is used to measure cloud height?

    • A.

      Barometer.

    • B.

      Ceilometer.

    • C.

      Cloudometer.

    • D.

      Laser measure.

    Correct Answer
    B. Ceilometer.
    Explanation
    A ceilometer is a piece of meteorological equipment specifically designed to measure cloud height. It uses laser or other optical technology to determine the distance between the instrument and the cloud base. This information is then used to calculate the height of the cloud layer. A barometer, on the other hand, is used to measure atmospheric pressure, not cloud height. Cloudometer and laser measure are not commonly used terms in meteorology and are not specifically designed for measuring cloud height.
