Question 1: 10 points
What is a vortex?
Question 1: 10 points
What is a vortex?
The movement of a liquid or gas in a spiral
around a central axis (calm center of air)
Question 2: 20 points
How do hurricanes form?
Question 2: 20 points
How do hurricanes form?
Warm, moist air evaporates over tropical
waters, creating a low pressure system
that is moved by trade winds and the
rotation of the earth.
Question 3: 30 points
In Inquiry 3.1 (soil, water, lamp),
how did you set up the lab to make
sure it was a fair experiment?
Question 3: 30 points
In Inquiry 3.1 (soil, water, lamp), how
did you set up the lab to make sure it was
a fair experiment?
Same amount of soil and water, same
distance from the lamp
Question 4: 40 points

graph: What
was the
temperature of
soil after 5
minutes?
Question 4: 40 points
Look at the
graph: What
was the
temperature of
soil after 5
minutes?
24.2°C
Question 5: 50 points
Describe how the water cycle
relates to cloud formation.
Question 5: 50 points
Describe how the water cycle
relates to cloud formation.
The water on earth’s surface gains energy and
evaporates into a gas (water vapor). As it
rises, it begins to lose energy and condenses into
liquid water. The condensed liquid water collects
on dust particles in the air, forming a cloud
Question 1: 10 points
What causes a vortex to form?
Question 1: 10 points
What causes a vortex to form?
Uneven heating of the earth’s
surfaces, the force of gravity,
and the rotation of the earth.
Question 2: 20 points
How are hurricanes
and tornadoes alike?
Question 2: 20 points
How are hurricanes
and tornadoes alike?
Both involve rotating winds,
a vortex, and cause
catastrophic damage.
Question 3: 30 points
In Inquiry 3.1, which surface
heated faster: soil or water?
Question 3: 30 points
In Inquiry 3.1, which surface
heated faster: soil or water?
Soil heated faster
Question 4: 40 points
What states make up
Tornado Alley?
Question 4: 40 points
What states make up
Tornado Alley?
Texas, Kansas,
Oklahoma, Missouri
Question 5: 50 points
How do some deep ocean
currents form?
Question 5: 50 points
How do some deep ocean
currents form?
They form from convection, which results from the
uneven heating of the earth. The water near the
Equator is warmed by more direct sunlight, which
causes it to rise and move towards the poles, where
it cools and sinks, flowing back towards the
Equator.
Question 1: 10 points
How does air move above
a heated (warm) surface?
Question 1: 10 points
How does air move above
a heated (warm) surface?
Air becomes warm, less
dense, and rises.
Question 2: 20 points
How are hurricanes and
tornadoes different?
Question 2: 20 points
How are hurricanes and
tornadoes different?
-Hurricanes form over water, tornadoes form over land.
-Tornado winds: 350 km/h, Hurricane winds: 119-250 km/h
-Hurricanes can last a week or longer
-Hurricanes are huge storms, tornadoes are smaller and
form from storms
Question 3: 30 points
In Inquiry 3.1, which surface held
its heat longer: soil or water?
Question 3: 30 points
In Inquiry 3.1, which surface held
its heat longer: soil or water?
Water held its heat longer
Question 4: 40 points
Why are there so many
tornadoes in Tornado Alley?
Question 4: 40 points
Why are there so many
tornadoes in Tornado Alley?
Cold, dry air from Canada meets warm,
moist air from the Gulf of Mexico.
Question 5: 50 points
How do winds affect ocean water?
Question 5: 50 points
How do winds affect ocean water?
The direction that the winds
blow determines the direction
of the surface currents.
Question 1: 10 points
How does air move
above a cool surface?
Question 1: 10 points
How does air move
above a cool surface?
Air becomes cool, more
dense, and sinks.
Question 2: 20 points
What role does the sun play in
the weather on the earth?
Question 2: 20 points
What role does the sun play in
the weather on the earth?
The sun heats the earth unevenly. It is the uneven
heating of the earth’s surface that causes
temperatures to change, wind to blow, storms to
develop, and rain to fall.
Question 3: 30 points
On the 3.1 graph, what did the
soil curve look like? Why?
Question 3: 30 points
On the 3.1 graph, what did the
soil curve look like? Why?
Steep rise and steep fall. The soil heated
very fast, and it lost its heat very fast.
Question 4: 40 points
When does a sea breeze occur?
Question 4: 40 points
When does a sea breeze occur?
Sea breezes form during the day
when the air over the water is cool
Question 5: 50 points
How do ocean currents affect air
temperatures around the world?
Question 5: 50 points
How do ocean currents affect air
temperatures around the world?
Warm ocean currents from the Equator bring
warm water and warm temperatures towards the
poles, and cold water from the poles brings cooler
temperatures back towards the Equator.
Question 1: 10 points
What happens when hot
air meets cold air?
Question 1: 10 points
What happens when hot
air meets cold air?
Cold air sinks, warm air rises above it,
causing unstable conditions, such as
thunderstorms that can produce
tornadoes.
Question 2: 20 points
What is a convection current?
Question 2: 20 points
What is a convection current?
Circulating flow of air or water (fluids)
resulting from temperature differences.
It is a form of energy transfer in a fluid.
Question 3: 30 points
On the 3.1 graph, what did the
water curve look like? Why?
Question 3: 30 points
On the 3.1 graph, what did the
water curve look like? Why?
Not very steep rise, and almost no fall
(flat line). The water heated slowly, but
it loses its heat very slowly.
Question 4: 40 points
Describe what happens
during a sea breeze?
Question 4: 40 points
Describe what happens
during a sea breeze?
The air over the warm land becomes warm, less
dense, and rises. It moves over the cool water,
where it cools, becomes more dense, and sinks. It
then moves back over land.
Question 5: 50 points
What are some labs/activities that
showed convection and how did they
show convection?
