EARTH SCIENCE WHAT IS THE GOAL OF SCIENCE?
GATHER INFORMATION • GATHER FACTS • CREATE A SOLID THEORY
LAW • IF A THEORY IS TESTED OVER AND OVER AND DOES NOT CHANGE IT IS A LAW
AREAS OF SCIENCE • EARTH • LIFE • PHYSICAL
GEOLOGY- EARTHS ORIGINS METEOROLOGY-WEATHER CLIMATE ATMPSPHERE OCEANOLOGY- THE ANIMALS AND THE FEATURES OF THE EARTH ASTRONOMY- PLANETS - STARS ANY OBJECT IN OUTER SPACE GROUPS / BRANCHES OF SCIENCE
ZOOLOGY- ANIMALS BOTANY- PLANTS ECOLOGY- PLANTS & ANIMALS ALSO
SCIENTIFIC METHOD • RESEARCH • HYPOTHESIS • EXPERIMENT • ANALYSIS • CONCLUSION
RESEARCH FIND OUT MORE FACTS
HYPOYHESIS EDUCATED GUESS BASED ON FACTS THIS IS NOT.. BUBBA I KNOW THIS..
EXPERIMENT • MUST FIND EVIDENCE TO SUPPORT HYPOTHESIS
ANALYSIS • LOOK AT DATA YOU HAVE GATHERED • CHARTS • GRAPHS
CONCLUSION • HOW ARE THE RESULTS SIMILAR OR DIFFERENT FROM HYPOTHESIS
WHAT DO YOU DO NOW? THE ENTIRE THING ALL OVER AGAIN...
METERS • LENGTH
VOLUME • AMOUNT OF SPACE AN OBJECT TAKES UP • LIQUID OR SOLID LITERS
MASS • MATTER IN AN OBJECT GRAMS
WEIGHT • ATTRACTION DUE TO GRAVITY • NEWTONS = MASS X 9.8
DENSITY • THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MASS AND VOLUME • HIGH DENSITY LOTS OF STUFF - SINKS • LOW DENSITY- LITTLE BIT OF STUFF • FLOATS ON TOP
VOLUME • MASS DIVIDED BY WEIGHT
TEMPERATURE • CELSIUS • 0 FREEZING • 100 WATER BOILS

k h da M d c m • CHANGING UNITS • MOVE DECIMAL POINT SAME DIRECTION AS YOU MOVE ACROSS THE CHART • km to dm • you move 4 spaces to right so... • move decimal point 4 spaces to right • lets look at an example
k h da M d c m • 6km to ?dm • you move 4 spaces to right so • DECIMAL POINT ALWAYS AFTER WHOLE NUMBER • 6. • move decimal point 4 spaces to right • answer... • 60000
k h da M d c m • 21hm= ? dam • you move 1 space to right so • DECIMAL POINT AFTER NUMBER • 21. • move decimal point 1 space to right • answer... • 210
k h da M d c m • 21dam= ? mm • you move 4 spaces to right so • DECIMAL POINT AFTER NUMBER • 4. • move decimal point 4 spaces to right • answer... • 40000
k h da M d c m • 28 cm= ? dam • you move 3 spaces to left so • DECIMAL POINT AFTER NUMBER • 4. • move decimal point 3 spaces to left • answer... • .004
REFRACTING TELESCOPE • USES LENSES TO FOCUS AND DRAW IN LIGHT
REFLECTING TELESCOPE • USES MIRRORS TO FOCUS AND COLLECT LIGHT
MULTI MIRROR TELESCOPES • EX. 6- 72 INCH MIRRORS • 400- 1 INCH MIRRORS - SHAPED LIKE A BEE HIVE
