If surface winds are blowing eastward at ?? km/hr and winds in the upper
troposphere are blowing westward at ?? km/hr, will there be enough
vertical wind shear to prevent a tropical cyclone from forming? What will be an ideal response?
Yes. The total wind shear is 15 km/hr + 30 km/hr, or 45 km/hr. This is higher than the
threshold for preventing the formation of tropical cyclones.

What is the highest spot in the conterminous United States? What is its elevation?
Perform a web search to determine the highest point in your state. Then, use the map to determine its elevation in meters.
Suggest one reason why the elevation of the outwash plain in the southeast is higher than the ground that was below the ice, northwest of the terminal moraine.
The question is based on Map T-11, the “Whitewater, Wisconsin” quadrangle (scale 1:62,500; contour interval 20 feet; dotted lines represent 10-foot contours). The irregular high ground of “Kettle Moraine State Forest,” running diagonally from the lower left to the right center of the map, is a terminal moraine left by a Pleistocene ice sheet (42°51'34"N, 88°35'59"W). The region northwest of the terminal moraine was once covered by the ice. The region in the southeast corner of the map is the edge of the glacial outwash plain. What will be an ideal response?
The ocean current called the Gulf Stream
A. travels through all of the world's oceans. B. vertically mixes the Atlantic ocean near the Southern United States. C. carries heat from the Gulf of Mexico to the North American coast and Northern Europe. D. carries heat from Hawaii to the Western coast of North America.
