Hurumanu-Science climate change

Science climate change

AIM: To look at climate change and the greenhouse effect

The Greenhouse Effect experiment

Materials

  1. Heat lamp
  2. Bottle
  3. Thermometer
  4. Baking soda
  5. Citric acid
  6. Rubber bung
  7. Water 

Procedure

  1.  Plug in heat lamps
  2. put heat lamps facing towards bottle
  3. add water to the bottle then put baking soda in one of the bottles
  4. add just water to the second bottle


Findings:The Greenhouse Effect Data 



Minutes
Bottle 1: Water 
Bottle 2: CO2 Gas

Hurumanu-wind power - science


wind power - science

Measuring weather.

Definitions:

  1.  Anemometer:
  2. Beaufort wind scale:

Anemometer

MATERIALS

  1. sellotape 
  2. pencil  
  3. pin  
  4. 2 sticks (kebab stick required)  
  5.   4 cups
  6. sticky note

STEPS

  1.   tape cups onto the cups        
  2.   Then tape stick together to make a "+"
  3.   pin cross to the rubber on the pencil
  4.   measure the wind.
Group Investigation.

Groups size: 5 
Roles:
  • Timekeeper
  • Counter
  • Recorder
  • Anemometer Manager
  • Wind Manager
  1. Mount the anemometer in a place that has full access to the wind from all directions.
  2. When the time keeper says "Go", the counter in each group will count how many times the marked cup passes them in one minute and write it down.
  3. Repeat the above step four (4) times and record the number of spins on the chart.

FINDINGS

  • Record how many times it spins and record it in the table below.
  • You will need to time them and count the number of spins.

Hurumanu-science Definitions!!

Definitions!!

Hi readers today I am going to be telling you about the document we did about definitions!
We got given 5 definitions then we had to say what it means.

here is mine:
hurumanu science-definition
  1. Anemometer
Measures the speed of the wind, gas, or any current.

  1. Image result for anemometer
    Beaufort wind scale
Measures the wind speed
  1. Python
It’s similar to a hurricane.
Image result for Beaufort wind scale

  1. Monsoon
A Monsoon is a seasonal change in the direction of the prevailing, or strongest, winds of a region.

  1. What is it when the weather is really nice then turns to hail fast?
forms when thunderstorm drafts are strong enough to carry water droplets well above the freezing level. It’s a Hailstone
