Post PSA Interview Written Help

Gents, what's psa looking for with these interview ?'s?

1.) VDP =?-> HAT(non precision)/300 (+/-) DME @ threshold = VDP w/3 degree angle @ 300 ft/nm
Is this sufficient?

2.) What type of clouds have severe/"strong?" turbulence?

A delimma: if they're looking for the worst turbulence among available choices, I request your enlightenment on which of these is the worst:

a) Towering Cumulous
b) Cumulonimbus
c) Rotor/Roll/Lenticular/Standing Lenticular/Cap Clouds

3.) What's the significance of the # of runway markings?

Are they looking for # of threshold stripes that signify the width of the runway,

or

Are they looking for "2 strips = 500ft length increments" / "single thick strips = 1000 footer aiming markings"?

4.) Seperation b/n parallel runways?

Anyone know if they're asking about simultaneous or dependent/staggered approaches?
