What causes an incline plane to use less force?
What is making the inclined plane longer and shorter.
100
Name the layers of the earth from the inside to the outside.
What is the inner core, outer core, mantle, and the crust.
100
Which simple machine would we consider the top of a water bottle?
What is a screw.
100
How are metamorphic rocks formed?
What is heat and pressure.
100
the cycle in which igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks are converted into one another in stages.
what is the rock cycle.
200
What is an example of a wedge?
What is an axe, knife, saw, nail, etc.
200
What state is the inner core made of and why?
What is solid and due to the extreme pressure on the inner core.
200
How would this pie chart look as a graph? Why are models important for scientific concepts?
What is dogs at 55%, cats at 30%, and ect. Also for scientists it is easy to represent the real world.
200
What type of rock it this?
What is an igneous rock. Obsidian.
200
If there are small sediments present and moving due to rain, which part of the rock cycle are we in between?
What is between igneous and sedimentary rocks.
300
If moving a flag using a puller, how would I make the flag move upward quicker?
What is using more force pulling the rope.
300
Where is there a higher temperature, pressure, and density at?
What is the inner core.
300
What are the states of the different layers of earth?
What is the inner core and crust is solid, the mantle is semi-solid, and the outer core liquid.
300
What type of rocks are formed near volcanoes, and what are some examples of these rocks?
What is igneous; intrusive and extrusive. What is granite, basalt, obsidian, or pumice.
300
How are sedimentary rocks formed into igneous rocks?
What is through melting and cooling.
400
Why are simple machines important for humans to have?
What is they reduce the amount of force needed to be used.
400
What are the different layers of the mantle, from outside to inside? (think of LAME, without the E)
What is lithosphere, asthenosphere, and the mesosphere.
400
Where are metamorphic rocks formed near?
What is deep under the Earths' surface near the magma.
400
What are the 2 different kinds of igneous rocks, and where are they formed?
What is intrusive, under the crust; and extrusive, above the crust.
400
How can we restart the rock cycle, meaning starting with magma?
What is melting of the rocks.
500
Do simple machines change the amount of force, work, or effort put in to move an object? (could be all 3, only 2, or only 1)
What is simple machines change the amount of force and effort put in.
500
How do we know that there are different layers of the Earth?
What is siesmic waves traveling through the Earth.
500
What is the full rock cycle? Recommend starting with magma and need to label how each rock type is formed.
What is magma cools and hardens to become igneous rocks, then igneous rocks weather and erode. The sediments then deposit into layers to compact and cement to become sedimentary rocks. Then sedimentary rock goes under extreme heat and pressure to become metamorphic. Last will melt to become magma again.
500
What are some characteristics of each type of rock?
What is Igneous: crystallization, porus, can be dark in color, shiny. Sedimentary: layers, sediments, grains of sand/porus. Metamorphic: ribbon-like layers, dense, smooth, no pores/spaces.
500
If there are granite rock present near or on a mountain this means what?
What is at some point there was volcano activity.
