Define wind.
What is flowing air.
100
When light increases energy, what happens to wavelength and frequency?
What is the wavelength gets shorter and frequency increases.
100
What is acceleration?
What is change in speed or direction
100
Why does it feel so different in the summer when you wear black or white?
What is black attracts the suns heat and white reflects the heat.
100
Acceleration is affected by what two components of motion?
What is change in speed and change in direction.
200
Why does a sea breeze happen during the day and not at night?
What is sun heats up water and it blows the water to land.
200
How are spectrolines like human fingerprints?
What is They both have their own unique lines.
200
Describe how you can accelerate in a car
What is step on the gas pedal.
200
How can we tell climate has changed just by looking at tree rings?
What is thickness, color, how far apart they are.
200
What is force?
What is a force is a push or a pull
300
How does ocean currents impact climate?
What is it can move the cold and warm water to places and change the temperature.
300
What happens to cause a red shift?
What is When stars are moving away from Earth creating long wavelength.
300
What is inertia
What is to resist to change in motion.
300
How does changing the tilt of Earth change seasons
What is If it tilts towards the sun it would be summer and if it tilts away it would be winter.
300
define Newtons 3rd law
What is for every action, there is an opposite and equal reaction.
400
What are the 3 forces that impact surface currents?
What is temperature, wind, coriolis.
400
What determines how a star will end its life?
What is mass.
400
What is Newtons 1st law?
What is if an object is in motion it stays in motion or if an object is at rest it stays at rest unless moves by a unbalanced force.
400
distinguish ways scientists learn about past climates.
What is ice cores, fossilized pollen, ocean sediments, tree rings
400
what is the formula to find the mass of an object.
What is m=F/a
500
What does LAMECOW stand for?
What is Lattude, air pressure, mountains, elevation, continental location, ocean currents, winds
500
Define the Big Ban Theory.
What is a big explosion that made the universe.
