• Mark all the components considered in Eulerian winds.
• The dew point is:
• By height, cirrocumulus are classed as:
• What is the main origin of waves?
• What can we learn with a psychrometer and its tables on board?
• The wind coming from the European continent, blowing from the NE and typical of the Balearic Islands, is called:
• In an air mass, the ratio between the vapour pressure actually present and the maximum possible at a given temperature is:
• In a cold occlusion:
• True course is the angle between:
• On the different courses, mark the INCORRECT statement.
• On ECDIS, mark the CORRECT option.
• To work out the total correction by formula from a transit, we need only:
• Using radar for coastal navigation, when taking bearings and ranges remember that:
• On the definition of latitude, mark the CORRECT statement.
• At 07:45, at l= 35º50´N; L= 006º 01´W we sail on Compass Course 080º at engine speed 5 knots. A northwesterly gives 5 degrees of leeway and a current sets 250º at 2.5 knots. Which answer is closest to our position at 09:15, given the total correction is 5º(+)?
• For a passage from l= 44°05´N; L= 007°25´W to l= 43°45´N; L= 006° 30´W, find the closest direct course and distance.
• Sailing at a point with a charted sounding of 12 metres, which answer is closest to the sounding at 10:40? We have: High water time = 06:34, height 1.75 m. Low water time = 12:40, height 0.25 m.
• Which answer is closest to the rhumb line course and distance from l= 35º55´N; L= 006º10´W to l= 36º25´N; L= 007º10´W?
