Space
What are the 8 planets in our solar system?
Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.
what is the ability of matter to burn
flammability.
How does energy flow through an ecosystem?
Energy enters as sunlight, is converted to chemical energy by producers, and is transferred through food webs.
What is rapidly produced during the burning process of gasoline that ultimately causes a car to move?
gases
How do rockets work?
Rockets work by expelling hot gas backward, which creates thrust that pushes the rocket forward.
Which planet is closest to the Sun
Mercury
What is matter?
Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space
How do organisms in an ecosystem interact?
Organisms compete for resources, interact with their environment, and are prey or predators.
Can water stay liquid below zero degrees Celsius
yes
What are boosters on a rocket?
how many planets are in the solar system
8
Which physical property of matter measures the force of gravity acting on an object?
weight
What areproducers, consumers, and decomposers in an ecosystem?
Producers make their own food (like plants), consumers eat other organisms, and decomposers break down dead matter.
Can you light diamond on fire?
yes
What is a payload?
The payload is what a rocket carries into space, such as astronauts, satellites, or scientific instruments.
how far is the moon from earth
238,900 miles
Which state of matter has a fixed shape?
solid
What are the three broad categories of ecosystems?
terrestrial, aquatic, and artificial
How do plants get their nitrogen from the air?
no
How do rockets navigate?
Rockets use a guidance system, which may include gyroscopes, accelerometers, and computers, to steer the rocket along its intended trajectory.
what is the temperature in the void of space
- 270.45 °C
Which type of matter is commonly found in the universe, but not commonly found on Earth?
plasma
What is an ecosystem?
An ecosystem is a community of living organisms (plants, animals, and microbes) interacting with their non-living environment (air, water, soil, sunlight).
How can glass be a liquid if it's so hard?
its molecules are disordered, similar to a liquid, but they're held in place by strong intermolecular forces, making it a solid.
Why can rockets work in space?
Rockets carry their own oxidizer, meaning they don't need oxygen from the air to burn fuel. This allows them to operate in the vacuum of space.
