Week 13- Climate Change

 During week 13, my group in the 8:30 lab researched rising sea levels. Here is the presentation we made:

Week 9- Geologic Time

Image
  For this week's lab, we tried to make a timeline of Geological Time. The above video is my first attempt before we talked about it as a class and I realized I was way off. The attached image of Geological Time shows Earth as a clock which really helped me understand. I had no idea that humans have been around for such a short period of time!

Week 1- Magnets

 1. What are some Real-Life applications of magnetism?             Refrigerators, Computers, Compasses, Northern Lights, Medical Equipment Magnet Lab 1. Ted began with a formative assessment to see what we knew about magnets before we started. The question was what would a magnet interact with? Many of us knew that metals were the answer, but we didn't know what metals specifically. 2. Our lab was set up with a mysterious hovering paperclip. There was a ruler with a large magnet taped to it. Then there was a paperclip that was somehow hovering just beside the magnet, but not actually touching it. The paperclip was attached to a piece of string that was also taped to the table.  3. Our investigation was putting different objects between the paperclip and the magnet to see if they would disrupt the magnetic field. Here are our results: Cardboard: No, does not interact with magnetic field Copper: No, does not interact with magnetic field Lead: N...

Week 5- Balls and Ramps

Image
-This week's lab involved making ramps to see how fast we could get a ball to roll down it. My group began with the Control to make sure we had something to refer back to once we started changing our variables. I will attach our data below, but out of all of the things we changed, the only thing that made it go faster was the angle of the ramp and the size of the ball. We found that the higher the angle of the ramp, the faster it went. We also found that the marble rolled the fastest out of all of the balls.  But why is this? What theory makes this work?  Newton's 1st Law of Motion                                                                                                     ...
