*PLEASE OPEN THIS AND HELP!* (8th Grade Science)?

Question

okay, so i have this teacher who hates my class because she thinks we like math better than science. We went to math class like usual and got this stupid assignment for missing math, which we didn't do!!! SHE HATES ME! Please help me this is a ditto DO TOMMOROW one of 7 pages! HELP ME!!!!PLEASE HELP ME!!

1. Why does the height of the cumulous cloud base change from day to day?

2. What would happen to the height of the cloud base if the dew temperature were lower?

3. How would it be possible to have a day without any clouds?

4. What relationship would you expect to find between the air temperature and dew point temperature at ground level if the area is covered by fog?

5. What happens to the air temperature of a descending mass of air?

6. What happens to the dew point temperature of a descending mass of air?

7. Explain why a descending mass of air would tend to become drier?

8. Decribe step by step how you can determine the base altitude at which clouds form?

Answer 1

check out the NWS page based in Oklahoma!

Answer 2

1) Because the dew point altitude change day to day.

2) The spread would be bigger and therefore the cloud base would be higher.

3) In a high pressure, the air sinks and warms up, dissolving clouds.

4) The dew point and air temperature are the same when in fog.

5) It gets adiabatically warmed up as pressure increases.

6) Dew point temperature rises.

7) As the air warms up by adiabatic effect, it can sustain more humidity and therefore the relative humidity sinks (but not the absolute one).

8) The average temperature sinks with 2 degrees  Celsius by one thousand feet of altitude. If the spread (difference between dew point temperature and air temperature at the surface) is say, 4 degrees Celsius, the base of the clouds will be 2,000 feet. Note that this is a thumb's rule. In reality, the temperature can sink at a totally different rate and even climb in an inversion. Furthermore, dew point temperature changes with pressure.
