In Part 2 of the field study, you studied the path of the cloud of gases and other substances spewed by Mount Pinatubo. Submit your data table and one sample calculation where you determined the distance traveled by the cloud. Also, submit the graph that you created of distance of the cloud center over time.

Sagot :

Measuring cloud data requires the use of Ceilometers. A Ceilometer is able to record cloud related data such as:

  • Cloud height ;and
  • Cloud ceiling.

What other factors are required for cloud measurement?

The distance and speed travelled by clouds are dependent on the following factors:

  • Type of cloud
  • Speed of wind
    Velocity and Density of the cloud
  • Presence of moisture, crystals of ice, droplets of water in the cloud
  • Distance of the cloud from the surface of the earth etc.

It is key to indicate here that the average speed range that clouds can travel is between 48 and 400 kilometers per hour.
