Answer to Question 1

ANS: F
The condensation energy is able to generate more air movement, not heat. Only 2 to 4 of
condensation energy is converted to motional energy. Information can be found in the section Storms
Are Variations in Large-Scale Atmospheric Circulation



Answer to Question 2

ANS: F
Cyclones are low pressure air masses that rotate. They can be called various names depending on their
location. Information can be found in the section Storms Are Variations in Large-Scale Atmospheric
Circulation.
