Manoa)
What is Saturation Vapor Pressure? - when the rate of water molecules entering the liquid is equal
to the rate of water molecules leaving the liquid



How does saturation vapor pressure vary with temperature? - As temperature increases, water
molecules escape more frequently causing the equilibrium water vapor pressure to rise



Latent heat - the heat required to convert a solid into a liquid or vapor, or a liquid into a vapor,
without change of temperature.



Heat Capacity - The amount of heat to be supplied to a given mass of a material in order to
produce a change give a unit change in temperature, generally to increase it 1 degrees C



List three ways that heat is transferred from the warm equator to the cold poles? - Winds in the
atmosphere and currents in the oceans redistribute the excess energy, moving the energy in the form of
latent and sensible heat from the lower latitudes to the poles to compensate for the radiation
imbalance. The transfer of heat energy in the Earth's surface, interior, atmosphere, and hydrosphere is a
result of radiation, convection, and conduction. An ocean's currents can play a part in transferring heat
to the poles.



Explain the cooling of your skin when you first step out of the ocean. - teacher Comment: When
you step out of the ocean, the water on your skin begins to evaporate. In order to change from a liquid
to a gas, the water needs energy. The water uses heat energy from its surroundings, including your skin.
This causes the cooling of your skin when you step out of the ocean.



What are some of the important roles that water plays in our atmosphere?

A. Impact radiation

B. Release latent heat

C. Precipitation

D. All of the above - All of the above: Impact radiation, Release latent heat, and Precipitation
