Science: 1. Complete Heating / Cooling of Earth’s Surface Lab. Name_______________________________ Class Letter/#:_________
Heating Earth’s Surface
In this lab you will develop and test hypotheses about how quickly different materials absorb radiation.
Purpose: How do the heating and cooling rates of sand and water compare?
Hypotheses:
1.) Hypothesis #1: Do you think sand or water will heat up faster? The __________ will heat up faster. *
*
2.) Hypothesis #2: Which material do you think will cool off more quickly? The __________ will cool down faster. *
*
Materials: · 2 thermometers · 2 beakers, 250 mL · water, 250 mL · metric ruler · string · ring stand with ring clamp · sand, 250 mL · lamp with 150 watt bulb · stopwatch · graph paper
Procedure: 1.) Fill one beaker with 250 mL of dry sand. 2.) Fill second beaker with 250 mL of water. 3.) Arrange the beakers beneath the ring stand. 4.) Place one thermometer in each beaker. 5.) Suspend the thermometers from the ring stand with string. This will hold the thermometers in place so that they do not fall. 6.) Adjust the clamp and the string so that the bulb of each thermometer is covered by about 0.5 cm of sand or water in the beaker. 7.) Position the lamp so that it is 20 cm above the sand and water. There should be no more than 8cm between the beakers. CAUTION: Be careful not to splash the water on the hot light bulb. 8.) Record the initial (starting) temperature of the sand and the water in your data table. 9.) Turn on the lamp. Read the temperature of the sand and water every minute for 15 minutes. Record the temperatures in the Light On column in the data table. 10.) Turn the light off. Read the temperature of the sand and water every minute for another 15 minutes. Record the temperatures in the Light Off column (16-30 minutes). Data Table:
English: 1. Description of an event or experience when you felt pain. - remember to use the descriptive language listed on the board when describing your experience; verb, adjectives, nouns, similes, metaphors, personification 2. Read up to chapter 18. 3. Vocabulary: admonition, assuage, obsolete, prohibition, successor.
Math: 1. Work on your paper. Now due on October 26/27th. 2. There is an example page of linear and inverse relationships saved as an attachment at the bottom of the page.
Thinking with Math Models
Unit Reflection Throughout this unit, Thinking with Math Models, you have explored several examples of linear relationships and inverse variations. You have looked for patterns in the tables, graphs, and equations of these relationships. This question will help you summarize what you have learned.
Give an example of a linear relationship and an inverse relationship. How are the relationships similar? How are they different?
You should consider the following questions:
This paper will be worth 20 points.
Science: 1. Read Pgs. 52-60 Workbook pgs. 22-24
Social Studies: 1. Text page 197 #’s 3,4,5. Due next class.
