B. Huron
C. Minneapolis
D. Phoenix
4. Indianapolis, Indiana, receives 51% possible sunshine and
has an average temperature of 40.3F during the heating
season. On the basis of the data presented, the net heat
gained by a double-pane window in Indianapolis would be
approximately:
F. 15 Btu/hr/ft
2
.
G. 7 Btu/hr/ft
2
.
H. 11 Btu/hr/ft
2
.
J. 27 Btu/hr/ft
2
.
5. Which of the following hypotheses about the relationship
between the percent of possible sunshine and average out-
door temperature during the heating season is best sup-
ported by the data?
A. As the percent of possible sunshine increases,
the average temperature decreases.
B. As the percent of possible sunshine increases,
the average temperature increases.
C. The average temperature is not directly related
to the percent of possible sunshine.
D. The percent of possible sunshine depends on
the length of the heating season, rather than the
average temperature.
