Watt's Going On
This occurs when a force moves an object over a distance.
Work
This happens when light bounces off a surface.
Reflection
This crust is thinner and denser and is commonly composed of this lighter-colored granitic rock.
Continental Crust
This part of the typhoon is calm and located at the center of the storm.
Eye
What is the formula for Power?
Power = Work/time
What is the formula for gravitational potential energy (GPE)?
GPE = mgh
This occurs when light changes direction as it moves from air into water.
Refraction
This type of volcano (according to shape) forms from low-viscosity lava that spreads out in wide layers.
Shield Volcano
These "extreme" tides occur when the Sun, Moon, and Earth are aligned in a straight line.
Spring Tides
When the Moon and Sun pull on Earth at right angles, the difference between high and low tide becomes smaller. These are called this type of tides.
Neap Tide
If you push a wall with all your strength but it does not move, this amount of work is done.
Zero Work
This type of mirror produces upright but smaller images.
Convex Mirror
Volcanoes that have not erupted in a long time but are expected to erupt again in the future are called this.
Dormant
These are also called outgoing tides. The movement of water from high tide to low tide.
Ebb Tide
A man pushes a box across a floor with a 40 N of horizontal force. If the box moves a distance of 3 meters, how much work was done?

A student lifts a 10-N book to a shelf 2 meters high. What is the amount of work done?
20 joules
The angle between the incoming light ray and the normal line is called this.
Angle of Incidence
This process occurs when oceanic crust sinks beneath continental crust at a convergent plate boundary.
Subduction
Large rotating tropical storm formed over warm ocean waters in the Indian Ocean or South Pacific.
Cyclone
This mountain range in the Philippines helps weaken typhoons but is also formed by tectonic processes.
Sierra Madre
Two students lift identical boxes to the same height, but one finishes faster. This student has greater ______.
Power
When light hits a smooth surface and reflects in one clear direction, this type of reflection occurs.
Regular reflection
This term refers to any volcanic eruption where water (groundwater or seawater) interacts with magma to cause steam explosions.
Phreatic Eruption
This effect caused by Earth’s rotation makes typhoons spin and curve as they move.
Coriolis Effect
A boulder with a mass of 500 kg is resting at the top of a cliff that is 5.5 meters high. Calculate the total mechanical energy of the boulder at the top of the cliff.
