CBSE Class 7 Social Science Understanding the Weather (Class 7 NCERT New) Quiz 2

1. What are the main factors that affect weather?

A Temperature, humidity, atmospheric pressure, wind patterns, and precipitation. B Seasonal changes in daylight C Geological formations D Ocean currents and tides

2. How does temperature change throughout the day?

A Temperature remains constant throughout the day. B Temperature decreases steadily from morning to evening. C Temperature fluctuates randomly without a pattern. D Temperature increases during the day, peaking in the afternoon, and decreases at night.

3. What is the difference between weather and climate?

A Weather is determined by geography; climate is determined by time zones. B Weather is short-term; climate is long-term. C Weather refers to the average temperature; climate refers to daily changes. D Weather is always rainy; climate is always sunny.

4. What are some common types of precipitation?

A Dew B Rain, snow, sleet, hail C Mist D Fog

5. How do clouds form?

A Clouds are created by the cooling of ground temperatures. B Clouds form through the condensation of water vapor in the air. C Clouds develop due to the presence of dust particles in the air. D Clouds form from the evaporation of soil moisture.

6. What is a weather front?

A A weather front is a boundary between two different air masses. B A weather front is a type of storm. C A weather front is a measurement of temperature. D A weather front is a type of precipitation.

7. How does humidity affect weather conditions?

A Humidity only influences wind speed. B Humidity is solely responsible for temperature changes. C Humidity significantly impacts weather by affecting temperature, precipitation, and cloud formation. D Humidity has no effect on weather conditions.

8. What tools do meteorologists use to predict weather?

A Seismographs and tide gauges B Weather satellites, radar systems, weather balloons, and computer models. C Wind turbines and solar panels D Thermometers and barometers

9. What are the effects of climate change on weather patterns?

A Climate change causes more extreme weather events, altered precipitation patterns, and disrupted seasonal cycles. B Climate change has no impact on weather patterns. C Climate change leads to milder winters and cooler summers. D Climate change results in more stable and predictable weather.

10. What are the main types of weather phenomena?

A Humidity levels, wind patterns, cloud types, air pressure B Seasonal changes, climate zones, ocean currents, solar radiation C Precipitation, storms, temperature variations, atmospheric conditions D Fog, drought, hail, atmospheric pressure
