PPL – Weather Questions and Answers Graded A+ General characteristics of air flows around high/low pressure systems in the Northern Hemisphere Low Pressure - inward, upward, and counterclockwise High Pressure - outward, downward, and clockwise What is a trough? An elongated area of relatively low atmospheric pressure. At the surface when air converges into a low, it cannot go outward against the pressure gradient, nor can it go downward into the ground; it must go upward. Therefor...

Are there drop-in replacements for R-12 systems? Why or why not? - No because the new refrigerants are incompatible with the oils and lubricants used in R-12 systems. What type of oil is used in R-134a and what oils will it mix with? - Ester based oils and they do not mix with other oils What type of lubricant is used with HCFCs? - Alkylbenzene lubricant What is difference b/w ternary blend a azeotropic blend? - Ternary blends are three-part mixtures whereas azeotropic blends are blends of...

WX 201 - Exam 2 Chapter 6-10 Questions and Answers The elevation where clouds form is called ____ level. condensation If the environmental lapse rate is 5 ° C per 1,000 m and the temperature at Earth's surface is 25 ° C, then the air temperature at 2,000 m above the ground is 15°C. What transfers heat upward into the atmosphere? thermals Just above cumulus clouds, you would expect to find a stable layer. If an air parcel is given a small push upward and it falls back...
