What are natural disasters? 

Natural disasters are violent, uncontrollable events caused by the forces of nature, potentially resulting in loss of life, injury, and property damage.

What is Newton's First Law?

When the sum of the forces acting on a particle is zero, its velocity is constant.  In particular, if the particle is initially stationary, it will remain stationary.

"an object at rest will stay at rest unless acted upon”

What is Light?

Something that makes things visible.

100

Name a movie we have watched in STEAM class?

Nightmare Before Christmas, Bambi, Spirited Away, Howls Moving Castle.

They are created when we mix two primary colors. They are green, orange, and purple.

200

What natural disasters can occur here?

Wildfires, earthquakes, floods, drought

200

What is Newton's Third Law?

The forces exerted by two particles on each other are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction

“for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction”

What does Transparent mean? Give an example

An object that light can pass through, does not create a shadow. Window Glass

200

Explain what is animation?

the technique of photographing successive drawings or positions of puppets or models to create an illusion of movement when the movie is shown as a sequence.

300

What are the colors of the rainbow?

Red, Orange, Yellow, Geen, Blue, Indigo, Violet

300

How can we prepare for natural disasters?

Communities can prepare by developing emergency plans, conducting drills, building resilient infrastructure, and educating residents about disaster risks.

300

What is equilibriuem? 

  • The object is stationary, therefore all the forces must add up to zero

  • Forces in the vertical direction: FN and Fg

  • There are no horizontal forces

300

What does translucent mean? Give and example

An object block the light some, creating a bit of a shadow. Wax paper, sunglasses.

300

How is the animation in Nightmare Before Christmas different than Bambi?

Claymation versus drawing.

Define black and white?

White is the reflection of all colors, black is the absorption of all colors

500
Name a scientific tool we use to calculate any of the natural disasters?

Seismometers, Seismographs, seismograms

List all the requirements from the Bridge Project?

10 cm long, 15 cm tall, 25 popsicle sticks, Only use glue, fan, jar of marbles, textbook.

500

What is the difference between frequency and wavelength?

Wavelength is the distance between peaks. Frequency is the number of waves.
