Activity B:

Predict hurricanes Get the Gizmo ready:
• Select Experiment and click Pause ( ).

Question: How can you predict the location and path of a hurricane?

1. Observe: Click Play ( ), and wait until you see a hurricane approaching one of the weather stations. Click Pause. What changes indicate a hurricane is approaching?

Cloud cover: Air pressure:

Wind speed:

2. Observe: Click Play, and wait for the hurricane to go over the land. What happens in the hours after landfall?

3. Collect data: Click Reset ( ). Turn off Show hurricane. Click Play. When the simulation reads Day 1, 3:00 PM, click Pause and record the data from each weather station.

Station Wind speed (knots) Wind from Cloud cover Pressure (mb)
A
B
C

4. Interpret: Using the readings above, do you think a hurricane is nearby? Explain.

5. Run Gizmo: Allow the Gizmo to run until the weather station data indicates a hurricane is nearby and will soon make landfall. Click Pause.

A. What weather station data indicated a hurricane would soon make landfall?

B. Turn on Show hurricane. Was your prediction correct? Explain.

Activity B (continued from previous page)

6. Gather data: Turn off Show hurricane, and click Reset. Click Play. At 12:00 P. M. of day 1, click Pause. From the Tools menu, drag a pointer to the predicted position of the eye of the hurricane, and draw an arrow in the diagram below. Label this arrow “1.”

Turn on Show hurricane, and mark a circle where the actual eye is located. Label this circle “1.” Turn off Show hurricane, and then repeat this procedure every 12 hours to mark the predicted and actual path of the hurricane.

7. On your own: Practice predicting the current and future positions of hurricanes. From the Tools tray, drag an arrow to where you think the eye of the hurricane is located. Turn on Show hurricane to check your prediction. Click on Tools and select screenshot ( ). Right-click the image, and click “Copy Image.” Take snapshots of the predicted and actual positions of the hurricane.

Paste your snapshots into a black document. Label each snapshot. Turn in your hurricane tracking document with this worksheet.

8. Make connections: As warm, moist air rises, water vapor in the air condenses and releases a great deal of heat energy. This energy powers a hurricane. How does this information explain what happens to hurricanes after they make landfall?

Science27 of the most iconic, jaw-dropping photos of the earth and the moon from spacedave mosher oct 1, 2018, 11: 13 am etnasa/flickrapollo 11 astronauts took this photo of earth on july 20, 1969.from the ground, earth looks like a boundless fertile plain that beckons to be explored and exploited.but astronauts would beg - and even plead - to differ."you realize that people often say, 'i hope to go to heaven when i die,'" jim lovell, an astronaut who flew on the apollo 8 and apollo 13 missions to the moon, previously told business insider. "in reality, if you think about it, you go to heaven when you're born."lovell has seen first-hand that we live on a tiny rock hopelessly lost in the void. he's also quick to tell you it's the only one we've got - a fragile spaceship for more than 7 billion people: "you arrive on a planet that has the proper mass, has the gravity to contain water and an atmosphere, which are the very essentials for life. and you arrive on this planet that's orbiting a star just at the right distance - not too far to be too cold, or too close to be too hot - and just at the right distance to absorb that star's energy and then, with that energy, cause life to evolve here in the first place. in reality, you know, god has really given us a stage, just looking at where we were around the moon, a stage on which we perform. and how that play turns out is up to us, i guess."humanity has recorded photos of earth from hundreds, thousands, millions, and even billions of miles away, some of them taken by lovell himself.these images not only scientists study our dynamic world, but also understand how a habitable planet looks from afar, which aids the search for more worlds. most importantly, however, the images underscore our peculiar existence on a mote of cosmic dust.take a moment to ponder 27 of the most arresting images of earth that humankind has ever captured from space.a

Clues to ecological principles are given in numerous passages of the bible. a bible study of ecology actually opens the doors to better understanding of god's love and concern for the earth. use a concordance to locate bible passages associated with words concerning our stewardship of the earth. you may use a dictionary to find synonyms for these words: dominion replenish subdue judgment stewardship find each of the passages using these words related to principles of ecology. list all passages by quote, book, chapter, and verse under each word. use your own interpretation to rewrite what you think each verse is saying. after your discussion of each of these words, ask one other person to explain his understanding of the word and a related verse without any hints. summarize what he tells you. a concluding paragraph for each of the words should be written noting similarities and differences between your interpretation and that of each person consulted.
