S
This sudden rise in sea level often floods coastal areas during a typhoon.
Storm surge
Heavy rain makes hillsides slide and crush houses in a village. What is this disaster called?
Landslide
The Philippines is hit by an average of this many typhoons per year.
20 or more.
Name this super typhoon that hit the Philippines in 2013.
Typhoon Haiyan (Yolanda)
This is the rise and fall of ocean water that happens every day.
Tides
True or False: Hurricanes commonly form in the warm waters of the Southern Atlantic, Southwestern Pacific, and Northern Pacific Oceans.
FALSE – Hurricanes commonly form in the Northern Atlantic and Northern Pacific. The Southern Atlantic rarely experiences hurricanes.
Where does a typhoon have to take place to be considered a typhoon?
What is the Northwest Pacific Ocean
How many high tides does most coastal areas experience in one day?
two high tides
How long do typhoons typically last? (not including aftermath)
What is one day
True or false hurricanes can go up to 600 mph.
What is true. Hurricanes can be up to 600 miles wide. They move slowly over the ocean, gaining power and speed.
The main force that causes ocean water to bulge toward the Moon.
Gravity
The type of tide that occurs when the Earth, Moon, and Sun are aligned in a straight line.
Spring tide
A dam-like structure built across a bay to harness tidal energy.
Tidal barrage
What causes damage in a hurricane/ typhoon?
What is winds, flooding, and storm surge
What creates uneven heating on the earth's surface?
What are The presence of the land and water on the surface of the earth
A truck moving at 30 m/s suddenly slows down to 10 m/s. If the truck’s mass is 2000 kg, calculate the change in kinetic energy.
KE= 800,000 J
A roller coaster car at the top of a hill has a mass of 500 kg and is 20 m above the ground. Find its gravitational potential energy.
PE= 98,000 J
A motorcycle starts from rest at a traffic light. It accelerates at 4 m/s² for 6 seconds to catch up with another motorcycle ahead. What is the final velocity of the motorcycle?
v= 24 m/s
A car is traveling at 15 m/s on a highway. The driver sees an open lane and accelerates at 3 m/s² to overtake a truck. How long does it take for the car to reach a speed of 30 m/s?
v = 30 m/s
If a car with an initial velocity of 10 m/s accelerates at 50 m/s² for 3.0 seconds, what will its final velocity be?
vf = 160 m/s

9 Joules
A 10 kg box is resting on the floor. What is its kinetic energy?
0 J
A car increases its velocity from 10 m/s to 20 m/s in 5 seconds. Find its acceleration.
2 m/s²
An objects accelerates at a rate of 2.30m/s2. How long will it take to change its velocity from 12.0m/s to 18m/s?
t = 2.61 seconds
If a car with an initial velocity of 10m/s, accelerates at a rate of 50.0m/s2 for 3.0 seconds, what will its final velocity be?
vf=160 m/s
