ATPL Meteorology (050) Practice Questions - EASA ATPL(A) Theoretical Knowledge - Meteorology (Subject 050) Exam - ATPL Meteorology (050) Practice Questions - EASA ATPL(A) Theoretical Knowledge

Question 1

According to the International Standard Atmosphere (ISA), what are the sea-level mean values of temperature, pressure and density?

15 degC, 1013.25 hPa, 1.225 kg/m3 0 degC, 1000 hPa, 1.000 kg/m3 15 degC, 1000 hPa, 1.225 kg/m3 20 degC, 1013.25 hPa, 1.293 kg/m3

Correct Answer:

15 degC, 1013.25 hPa, 1.225 kg/m3

Question 2

In the ISA, what is the temperature lapse rate from sea level up to the tropopause at 11 km?

1.98 degC per 1000 ft up to 11 km 0.65 degC per 100 m (about 1.98 degC per 1000 ft) 1.0 degC per 100 m 3.0 degC per 1000 ft

Correct Answer:

0.65 degC per 100 m (about 1.98 degC per 1000 ft)

Question 3

What is the ISA temperature at the tropopause (11 km / FL360) and how does it behave above that level up to 20 km?

-40 degC, then it decreases steadily -56.5 degC, then it increases immediately -56.5 degC, then it remains constant up to 20 km -65 degC, then it remains constant

Correct Answer:

-56.5 degC, then it remains constant up to 20 km

Question 4

How does the height of the tropopause typically vary with latitude?

It is highest over the poles and lowest over the equator It is lowest over the equator because of strong convection It is constant at 11 km at all latitudes It is highest (about 16-18 km) over the equator and lowest (about 8-9 km) over the poles

Correct Answer:

It is highest (about 16-18 km) over the equator and lowest (about 8-9 km) over the poles

Question 5

An aircraft maintains FL100 while flying from a region of high surface temperature into a region of low surface temperature, with QNH unchanged. What happens to the true altitude?

True altitude decreases True altitude increases True altitude stays the same True altitude first increases then decreases

Correct Answer:

True altitude decreases
