Geology
The movement of sediments is...
erosion
Friction - is moving the opposite direction of a push or pull, it can slow moving objects down. Bumpy or rough surfaces result in more friction.
Thinking about smoke signals... when a person starts the fire and makes different size puffs of smoke, this is which part of the communication system? (Send, Recieve, Encode, or Decode, )
Encode
Today, the temperature will be higher in New York than in Los Angeles (is an example of....)
Weather
The length of time of the Earth's Revolution or ORBIT
1 year, 365 days
Rock breaking down is
weathering / abrasion
A car is traveling on the highway, using cruise control, to maintain a speed of 55 mph. The forces are...
Balanced, constant speed.
What is another word for "conditions" ? A synonym...
Trials, settings...
The Artic has long, cold winters and short, cool summers (is an example of...)
Climate
Earth's revolution causes us to see...
Different constellations during different times of the YEAR
If sediments build up over time we say they have been...
deposited
Abe is pedaling hard to start moving. He pedals faster and faster. Finally, hits the brakes and slows down. The forces are...
Unbalanced (speeding up and slowing down)
SHIP Question!
N/A
List at least 3 types of data we may observe to discuss weather
Temperature, precipitation, cloudiness, wind speed and direction...
Name 3 things that the Earths ROTATION causes us to see...
Day and night, changing lengths and direction of shadows, suns (and moons!) apparent movement across the sky
Canyons and valleys form because water carrying sediments...
Weather / abrade the rock below. The sediments that break off or come loose erodes or moves to a new location.
Two magnets are near each other, their like poles are nearest, therefore they will...
Repel
At TJ MAXX, the cashier may wave a flag when they are ready for a new customer to come to their register. The customer seeing the flag, is which step of communication? (Encode, Decode, Send, or Recieve)
Receive
Temperate forests have very different temperatures during different seasons, COLD winter, HOT summer, and inbetween for fall/spring.
Describe how gravity works, and draw a model!
Gravity pulls all objects towards the surface of the earth.
How did the grand canyon form?
First layers of sediment had to build up over thousands of years of deposition. THEN weathering and abrasion by water and wind carrying sediments broke down the rock, carved a pathway, and eroded sediments to a new place.
The force that opposes gravity is called
normal
What is a constraint of using smoke signals as a form of communication?
Having the right materials to build and start a fire, especially after rain!
When discussing a places climate, what is a word you will regularly use...
AVERAGE (collected over a longer period of time), or usually, or typically...
You see a last quarter moon on April 14th, when will you see a full moon?
April 21 (1 week later)
