Physical Science
This is the formula for density.
What is M = D / V?
Explain how it is possible for the sun to cause water to change its state of matter.
What is cause evaporation in a body of water?
This subatomic particle determines the identify of an atom
What is a proton?
Explain why some natural disasters can be prepared for and others cannot.
What is because some give early warning signs (hurricanes) and some do not (earthquakes)?
This Greenhouse gas has risen the most in the last 100 years.
What is Carbon Dioxide (CO2)?
The charge of this subatomic particle is 0.
What is a neutron?
These two elements make up water.
What are Hydrogen and Oxygen?
This cannot be broken down into something more simple and has specific traits.
What is an element?
We believe that fossils match on different continents because of this reason
What is because the continents once were together and moved apart?
This is one way that humans have contributed to climate change.
What is the burning of fossil fuels?
What are solid, liquid, and gas?
Warm air/water rises, cool air/water sinks due to this mode of heat transfer.
What is convection?
Ouch! My seatbelt is so hot because it has been sitting in the sun. When I touched it, the heat transferred to me through the following mode of heat transfer.
What is conduction?
Describe how the sun influences the rock cycle.
What is causes weathering through wind and water movement?
Do geoscience processes occur gradually, quickly, or both to change Earth's surface?
What is Both?
This is the mass of electrons when compared to other subatomic particles.
What is virtually zero?
Wind moves from ____ to _____.
What is high pressure to low pressure?
The transfer of heat through invisible infrared waves that travel through air or space is the definition for this word.
What is radiation?
This is the law that describes how the lowest layers of rock are the oldest.
What is the law of superposition?
When salt is placed in water, this type of change occurs.
What is a physical change?
This law describes how atoms stay the same in both reactants and products during a chemical reaction.
What is the law of conservation of matter/mass?
These are the three ways we've discussed that the sun heats the Earth unevenly.
This is the density of a 60 Kg object which is placed into a tank filled with 100 L of water which then rises to 220 L? Use Units!
What is 0.5 Kg/L?
This is the term that describes why the Atlantic Ocean is getting bigger every year.
What is seafloor spreading?
This happens to particles when heat is added to ice.
