Unlike lava, this type of molten rock is found beneath the surface of the Earth.
What is magma?
100
This type of boundary occurs when two tectonic plates move away from each other.
What is a divergent boundary?
100
This category of natural resources is made over many human lifetimes.
What are non-renewable resources?
100
This is often called the Energy of Movement.
What is Kinetic Energy?
100
What is Coulomb's Law?
200
This type of rock can form on the earth's surface after lava cools.
What is igneous rock?
200
This term describes the tectonic belt of volcanoes and earthquakes around the edge of the pacific ocean.
What is the Ring of Fire?
200
This category of natural resources is can be replenished in a human lifetime through natural processes.
What are renewable resources?
200
This is often called "Stored Energy".
What is Potential Energy?
200
This is the physics term for any push or pull on an object.
What is a force?
300
These two processes can break any rock into small pieces over time.
What are weathering and erosion?
300
This type of tectonic plate boundary causes major earthquakes as plates slide past each other.
What is a transform boundary?
300
These type of resource was formed when ancient plants, zooplankton, or algae were buried in sedimentary rock for millions of years.
What are fossil fuels?
300
This science law says that Energy cannot be created or destroyed.
What is the Law of Conservation of Energy?
300
This system exists between any object and the Earth and keeps the moon in orbit around the earth.
What is a gravitational field?
400
This is the only type of rock to contain fossils.
What is the sedimentary rock?
400
This type of sedimentary rock is often dissolved by groundwater and forms sinkholes.
What is Limestone?
400
70% of Earth's surface is covered in this resource. However, only a small percentage is useable for keeping humans alive.
What is water?
400
Measured in kilograms, this quantity describes the amount of matter in an object.
What is mass?
400
This type of magnet can be turned on or off.
What is an electromagnet?
500
This large object provides the energy that causes the formation of sedimentary rock.
What is the Sun?
500
These areas form when one plate is forced underneath another one and often create volcanos.
What are Subduction Zones?
500
This metal is used in electric wires and is only found near current or former subduction zones.
What is Copper?
500
Measured in meters per second (m/s), this quantity that designates how fast something is moving.
What is velocity?
500
These tiny particles surround the nucleus of an atom and always have a negative charge.
What are Electrons?
