Question

Focus on the other four wind arrow locations shown around the mesocyclone along the radar beam positions 2 and 4. These printed arrows are neither directly toward or away, nor perpendicular to the radar beam direction. Where the radar beam direction and the actual wind arrow make an angle other than 0 or 90 degrees, Doppler radar senses only the component of the total motion that is directly toward or away from the radar. For the two arrows that are directed partly toward the radar, use the green pencil to draw approximately half-length green arrows, from the location dots, that are aimed directly toward the radar along the dashed beam direction. These two locations are at the ________ radar beam position.

A. 2
B. 4
C. 1
D. 3

Answer 1

The two locations where the wind arrows are directed partly toward the radar are at the radar beam positions 2 and 4. Option D. 3 is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The two locations where the wind arrows are directed partly toward the radar are at the radar beam positions 2 and 4. To draw approximately half-length green arrows from these locations, use the green pencil along the dashed beam direction. Therefore, the answer is option D. 3.
