Heat transfer
Name the 3 types of Heat Transfer.
Conduction, Convection, and Radiation
Explain how the water cycle works (include at least 1-2 Vocabulary words)
First The Sun heats water and evaporation happens. Then when the water vapor rises up into the air and since the air is cooler, the water vapor condenses and turns into clouds. After, when the clouds get heavy, precipitation happens. (rain, sleet, hail, snow, etc)
What are some different types of precipitation?
Rain, sleet, snow, hail, etc
Explain Radiation
Heat traveling through and empty space with no touching. Example: Microwave or sun shinning down
Explain what conduction is
Conduction - The transfer of heat through direct contact.
What is the Major Processes in the water cycle?
Evaporation, Condensation, And Precipitation!
How does heat travel
From warm to cooler objects
When water changes from a liquid to a gas known as water vapor it is _______
evaporating/evaporation
Explain What convection is
Convection - When heat is transferred through liquid or gas.
Water that soaks into the ground is called what in the water cycle?
Groundwater
What is Heat Also known as?
Thermal Energy
Why does warm air rise?
It is lighter than cooler air
What is happening when you feel warm when your out in the sun? (hint: its a process)
Radiation!
What fuels the water cycle?
The Sun!
Name and describe one of the processes of the water cycle.
Evaporation - When the Sun heats the water and it evaporates
Condensation - When water vapor condenses and forms clouds
Precipitation - When clouds become too heavy they release rain, snow, sleet, hail, etc.
When water changes from a gas to a liquid it is known as ________
Condesation
When you Touch the stove and you feel heat, What is happening? (hint: its a process!)
Conduction!
How do plants give off water?
Transpiration!
What is A runoff?
Water that does not soak in soil but instead moves on the Earth's surface toward streams.
True or False: The water cycle starts with evaporation and ends with precipitation.
False: The water cycle has no beginning or end
