Answer Energy in the Atmosphere 500 What is the process by which gases hold heat in the air? Answer Heat Transfer 100 What is thermal energy? Answer Heat Transfer 200 How many degrees Celsius are there between the freezing point and boiling point of water? Answer Heat Transfer 300 What are the three ways heat is transferred? Answer Heat Transfer 400 What is temperature? Answer Heat Transfer 500 What is heat? Answer Winds 100 What causes wind? Answer Winds 200 What are global winds? Answer Winds 300 What is the name of the instrument that measures wind speed? Answer Winds 400 What are the names of the three major wind belts? Answer Winds 500 What are jet streams? Answer Water in the Atmosphere 100 What is the movement of water between the atmosphere and the Earth’s surface called? Answer Water in the Atmosphere 200 What is humidity? Answer Water in the Atmosphere 300 How are clouds formed? Answer Water in the Atmosphere 400 What is a psychrometer? Answer Water in the Atmosphere 500 What are the three main types of clouds? Answer Precipitation 100 List four common types of precipitation. Answer Precipitation 200 What is precipitation? Answer Precipitation 300 What device is used to measure precipitation? Answer Precipitation 400 What must happen before precipitation can fall from a cloud? Answer Precipitation 500 What kind of cloud produces hail? Answer Energy in the Atmosphere 100 Radiation Game Board Energy in the Atmosphere 200 Violet Game Board Energy in the Atmosphere 300 Visible light Infracted radiation Ultraviolet radiation Game Board Energy in the Atmosphere 400 Infrared Radiation Game Board Energy in the Atmosphere 500 Greenhouse Effect Game Board Heat Transfer 100 The total energy of motion in the molecules of a substance. Game Board Heat Transfer 200 100 °C Game Board Heat Transfer 300 Radiation Conduction Convection Game Board Heat Transfer 400 The average amount of energy of motion in the molecules of a substance. Game Board Heat Transfer 500 The energy transferred from a hotter object to a cooler object. Game Board Winds 100 Wind is the horizontal movement of air from an area of high pressure to an area of low pressure. Game Board Winds 200 Global winds are the movement between the equator and the poles. Game Board Winds 300 Anemometer Game Board Winds 400 Trade Winds Prevailing Westerlies Polar Easterlies Game Board Winds 500 Jet streams are bands of high-speed winds about 10 kilometers above the earth’s surface. Game Board Water in the Atmosphere 100 Water Cycle Game Board Water in the Atmosphere 200 Humidity is a measure of the amount of water vapor in the air. Game Board Water in the Atmosphere 300 Clouds are formed when water vapor in the air becomes liquid water or ice crystals. Game Board Water in the Atmosphere 400 A psychrometer measures relative humidity. Game Board Water in the Atmosphere 500 Cumulus Stratus Cirrus Game Board Precipitation 100 Rain Sleet Hail Freezing Rain Snow Game Board Precipitation 200 Precipitation is any form of water that fall from clouds and reaches Earth’s surface. Game Board Precipitation 300 Rain Gauge Game Board Precipitation 400 Cloud droplets must grow heavy enough to fall through the air.
