ok, i don't have answer to these questions!
#8: The interaction of air, water, and _________ causes weather.
#9: Violent storms generally form where?
#10:clouds form as warm air rises, expands, cools, and becomes saturated, and then _______________ condense(s) into tiny drops, which collect.
PLZ HELP ME!
#13: Weather in our atmosphere moves in what direction?
THIS ONE IDK IF RIGHT!
#12: The rays of the sun strike Earth most directly __________. (my answer): over the equator.
#8 sun
# 12 is the equator
#10 is moisture (or water vapor)
#13 is from west to east (at temperate latitudes such as North America and Eurasia, most of the time)
#8: The interaction of air, water, and **sunlight** causes weather.
#9: Violent storms generally form **in areas of low pressure**.
#10: Clouds form as warm air rises, expands, cools, and becomes saturated, and then **water vapor condenses into tiny droplets, which collect**.
#13: Weather in our atmosphere generally moves **from west to east**.
Regarding #12, your answer is correct. The rays of the sun strike Earth most directly **over the equator**.
Sure, I'd be happy to help you with these questions!
#8: The interaction of air, water, and ____________ causes weather.
To answer this question, we need to think about what interacts with air and water to cause weather. In this case, the missing component is "sunlight." Sunlight heats the Earth's surface and the atmosphere, which in turn affects air and water movements, leading to various weather conditions.
#9: Violent storms generally form where?
This question requires knowledge about the conditions that contribute to the formation of violent storms. Violent storms, such as hurricanes or tornadoes, usually form in regions with warm ocean waters, high humidity, and unstable atmospheric conditions. These conditions are commonly found in coastal areas, especially in tropical or subtropical regions.
#10: Clouds form as warm air rises, expands, cools, and becomes saturated, and then _______________ condenses into tiny drops, which collect.
To answer this question, we need to identify what happens to the saturated air as it cools. The missing word is "water vapor." As warm air rises and cools, it loses its ability to hold moisture, causing water vapor to condense into tiny droplets that form clouds.
#13: Weather in our atmosphere moves in what direction?
To determine the direction of weather movement, we need to consider the general patterns in atmospheric circulation. Weather moves in a predominantly eastward direction due to the Earth's rotation. This is known as the prevailing wind pattern, where air masses and associated weather systems generally move from west to east.
#12: The rays of the sun strike Earth most directly __________.
Based on your answer, "over the equator," you are correct. The rays of the sun strike the Earth most directly near the equator. This is because the equator receives sunlight more directly due to its position and causes it to be warmer compared to the polar regions. This variation in sunlight intensity contributes to the Earth's climate patterns.
I hope this helps clarify the answers to your questions! Let me know if there's anything else I can assist you with.
