Answers
1
Troposphere: Which of these isn’t correct?
The lowest layer
The thinnest layer
It gets hotter as you go higher
75% of air molecules in the atmosphere are inthe troposphere
2
What is radiation
Gas to liquid
Solid to solid
Liquid to liquid
No contact, but you feel heat
3
Stratosphere: Which of these isn’t correct?
Ozone layer is in the Stratosphere
It gets hotter as you go higher
Meteors are found in the stratosphere
There is rarely clouds or weather here
4
How does heat transfer relate to weather?
When it’s cold, we feel the cold when we transfer our heat
Weather can be hot sometimes
Convection occurs inthe troposphere, and that causes weather
5
What is air pressure?
The amount of force exerted by air
The amount of mass in a given volume
6
What is density?
The amount of force exerted
The amount of mass in a given volume
7
Which of these isn’t an example of radiation?
Tongue freezing to a metal pole
Roasting marshmallows over a fire
Freezing on a cold day
Warming your hand over a radiator
8
Thermosphere: Which of these isn’t correct?
Not enough gas particles to transfer heat
The thinnest layer
Gets hotter as you get higher
The ISS orbits in this layer
9
What is conduction?
Solid to liquid
Liquid to gas
Solid to solid
Liquid to liquid
10
Mesosphere: Which of these isn’t correct?
This layer protects us from UV rays
Gets colder as you go higher
Above flight limits of planes
Meteors are found here
11

19
Which of these isn’t an example of conduction?
Ice melting on a hotplate
Eggs cooking in a frying pan
Making toast in a toaster
Warmth from the fireplaces going throughout the house
