1. What is humidity?



2. What is the term for the maximum amount of water vapor that air can hold at a specific temperature?



3. What is relative humidity?



4. Which process occurs when water vapor in the air cools and changes back into liquid water?



5. What is the process by which liquid water turns into water vapor?



6. What happens to the air’s capacity to hold moisture as the temperature increases?



7. What is the term for the temperature at which air becomes saturated and condensation begins to occur?



8. What is the primary driver of precipitation formation in the atmosphere?



9. What type of precipitation forms when water vapor freezes directly into ice crystals?



10. Which type of cloud is typically associated with heavy rainfall?



11. What is the term for precipitation that falls as liquid but freezes upon contact with cold surfaces?



12. Which of the following factors can lead to an increase in humidity?



13. What kind of precipitation occurs when raindrops fall through a layer of freezing air near the surface?



14. What is the primary source of moisture for precipitation?



15. In which layer of the atmosphere does most precipitation occur?



16. Which type of humidity is measured in grams of water vapor per cubic meter of air?



17. What weather phenomenon is characterized by rapidly falling air, resulting in heavy rainfall and thunderstorms?



18. Which instrument is used to measure humidity in the atmosphere?



19. What happens to the relative humidity when the temperature decreases while the amount of water vapor remains constant?



20. What is the term for the process by which water vapor is converted directly into ice without becoming liquid first?



21. What type of cloud typically forms in stable air conditions and produces steady precipitation?



22. Which term describes the water vapor content in the air expressed as a percentage?



23. What is the term for a long-lasting rain that is gentle and uniform?



24. Which process is responsible for the formation of clouds?



25. What type of precipitation is characterized by ice pellets that form in thunderstorms?



26. What is the typical dew point temperature range in a humid environment?



27. What is the primary factor that leads to the formation of rain in a warm front?



28. What is the primary cause of the “rain shadow” effect?



29. Which type of precipitation is most common in tropical regions?



30. Which atmospheric condition is most conducive to the development of thunderstorms?
