What is the Big Bang Theory?
This type of rock forms from the cooling and solidification of magma or lava.
What is Igneous Rock?
What are the 3 subatomic particles of an atom?
What are the protons, electrons, and neutrons
What is Newton's 2nd Law of motion?

"This element, making up about 75% of the universe's elemental mass, is the most abundant in space."
What is Hydrogen?
This process describes the breaking down of rocks into smaller pieces by physical forces such as wind, water, and temperature changes.
What is weathering?

What is a Hertzsprung-Russel Diagram?
This layer of the Earth's atmosphere is where weather occurs.
What is the Troposphere?
Which electrons are considered valence electrons?
What are electrons found in the outermost energy level.
John has a ball on a string and is swinging the ball in a circular path at a constant speed of 10m/s. Is the ball accelerating? Why or why not?
Yes, the ball is acceleration occurs when an objects velocity changes. As the ball is constantly changing direction, their is constant acceleration.
These giant clouds of gas and dust are the birthplaces of stars.
What are Nebulae?
This process describes the change of a substance from a gas to a liquid, often resulting in the formation of clouds. (Hint: Think Water Cycle)
What is condensation?
What element is represented by this Bohr's model?
What is Carbon
This property of matter is often described as the resistance to change in motion.
What is Inertia
This is the process by which stars convert hydrogen into helium, releasing energy in the form of light and heat.
What is Nuclear Fusion?
This instrument measures atmospheric pressure.
