what is it?

Question

1.What is areas of descending air?

2.What is a type of precipitation that forms when the air temperature is below freezing and water vapor changes directly to a soid?

3.What are areas of less dense, warm air that can be forced upward?

choices:
-hail
-cloud
-relative humidity
-fog
-areas of high pressure
-snow
-areas of low pressure

Answer 1

1.What is areas of descending air?
-areas of high pressure

2.What is a type of precipitation that forms when the air temperature is below freezing and water vapor changes directly to a soid?
-hail


3.What are areas of less dense, warm air that can be forced upward?
-areas of low pressure

Answer 2

1. High pressure (air is descending so more air at the surface so more pressure).

2. Could be hail or snow, depending on where in the atmosphere the solidification occurs, and how many times the particle moves into and out of freezing temperatures before it strikes the surface. Hail forms when water freezes, then moves through warmer air and attracts a thin film of water, then goes through more freezing air and that water freezes and it continues.

3. Areas of low pressure - not as much air, so less pressure and more easily moved up by incoming wind (I think, you better check this one, but its not cloud, humidity, or fog)

Answer 3

1) area of high pressure
2) snow
3) area of low pressure
