Physics
Things like to stay where they are, they like to keep doing what they are doing.
What is Inertia
The total kinetic energy of moving particles of matter.
What is Thermal Energy
The inner core protects us from the Earths rays creating the North and Southern lights.
What is the Magnetoshpere
Slabs of rock or plates (lithosphere) that move
What is Plate tectonics
An event that occurs naturally and can have a negative impact on people.
What is a Natural Hazard
The force that atracts an object toward the Earth or any other physical object that has mass.
What is Gravity
The average kinetic energy of particles of matter.
What is Temprature
Dust and clouds happened 4.5 million years ago.
What are Molecular clouds
The outer most layer of the Earth.
What is the Lithosphere.
The number of times an event happens in a specific amount of time.
What is Frequency
As a substance is heated up the molecules move faster, where as when molecules cool, they take up less space.
What is Expantion and contraction
A systems Thermal energy is determines by this
What is Heat and Mass
230 million year ago, reptiles evolved into the dominant land animal.
What is a Dinosaur
Divergant plate, Transform plate, Convergent plate.
What are plate boundries.
Vibrations in rock mineral caused by Earthquakes
What are Seismic waves
All matter is made up if this, they are clumped together in "little lumps" called molecules.
What is Atoms
When two or more objects come together and end up with the same temperature.
What is Thermal equilibrium?
Through photosynthesis, they start converting Carbon Dioxide to Oxygen.
What are Stormatolites
The circulation of materials caused by differences in temperature and density
What causes convection
The strength or intensity of an event, and is represented by a numerical scale.
What is magnitude
A principle of bouyancy stating hot fluids rise and cold fluids sink.
What is Convection
This method of heat transfer occurs in fluids due to density differences.
What is convection?
Tectonic plates moved toward each other finally creating a landmass covering 1/3 of the Earths surface.
What is Supercontinet/Pangea
A consequence of the rising mantle of ocean ridges.
After thick magma, intence pressure builds up, rises towards the surface. Rocks can no longer contain, it explodes.
What are Explosive eruptions
