3) How does air speed and wind affect the level of smog in the city? The less air and wind the higher the levels of smog there is in the air. And smog does not leave it stays for a long time.
4) How does temperature affect the level of smog in the city? If there is an increase in temperature then there is more smog.
5) Which type of emission has the greatest affect on air quality? Cars have the greatest affect on the air quality because there is an increasing amount of cars being used being on the very unhealthy category.
