ACTIVITY 3: UNDER PRESSURE

Answers to questions

Q1. What did you observe in each bottle?

Answer: A fizzing sound was heard followed by the rushing out of bubbles from the
bottle dipped in hot water. There was also a sound heard in the bottle placed in cold
water but not as much as in bottle A.

Q2. Explain your observation.

Answer: There was accumulated gas inside the bottle.

Q3. What is the role of hot water in the setup?

Answer: The hot water increases the temperature of the soda drink inside the bottle.
As the temperature increases, more gas is accumulated inside the bottle. This
causes the fizzing sound.

Q4. Do you have the same observation as in the soda drinks?

Answer: The observation in the bottle of cooking oil is not the same as in the soda
drinks.

Q5. Explain your answer.

Answer: There was not much gas released in the bottled cooking oil because of its
composition. Soda drink is carbonated. The high temperature released the gas from
the soda drinks.

ACTIVITY 5: IN AND OUT

Q1. Compare the appearances of the cones.

Answer: Cone A was almost flat, cone C tallest while cone B was in-between the two
cones.

Q2. Which volcano has the greatest slope? Which has the least slope? Answer: Cone
B has the greatest slope while cone A has the least slope.

Q3. Explain how the type of material extruded from a volcano affects the shape of
its cone.

Answer: Cone A was almost flat because it was formed from lava.Fluid flows freely,
forming a very wide base.
Q4. In what way does the formation of a volcanic cone model differ from a real
volcano?

Answer: In real life, the emissions come from within while,in the model, the cone is
from the materials that are poured from outside.

ACTIVITY 1; WHEN THE SUNS STRIKE

Answers to Questions

Q1. 23.50

Q2. Equator

Q3. It is due to the tilting of the earths axis and the shape of the earth.

Q4. They receive less amount of heat.

Q5. Due to the tilting of the earths axis, places near the equator receive more heat
making the air

temperature higher.

Q6. When the area is farther from the equator, the air temperature is lower resulting
in a cold

climate. When the place is closer to the equator, the air temperature is higher which
results in a

warm climate.

ACTIVITY 2: THE HIGHER, THE COLDER

Answers to Questions

Q1. Baguio

Q2. Manila

Q3. Temperature (y) vs Elevation

ACTIVITY 3: WHICH COOLS AND HEAT FASTER

Answers to Questions

Q1.

Q2.

Q3. Over the same time interval, temperature of soil rise faster..

Q4. The temperature decreases or becomes lower.

Q5. Soil cools faster.

Q6. A body of water circulates the warm air and cold air. It absorbs more heat and
can slowly

release heat making the change in temperature of a country moderate.

Q7. Because there no bodies of water that will moderate the change in temperature
in the

location.

ACTIVITY 4: WHICH SHOULD I CHOOSE, WIND WARD OR LEEWARD

Answers to Questions

Q1. It condenses to form clouds.

Q2. The windward side.

Q3. The leeward side.

Q4. It rises up the atmosphere.

Q5. Rain shadow

Q6. Moist wind coming from the sea flow up the mountain. Because temperature
falls with

altitude, water vapor eventually condenses and there is precipitation.

ACTIVITY 5: TEMPERATURES OF DIFFERENT CITIES AROUND THE WORLD

Answers to Questions

Q1. Manila

Q2. It is the altitude and the closeness to the equator.

Q3. Vienna

Q4. The distance to the equator affects its climate. The farther the place from the
equator the

lower the air temperature.

Q5. The distance from the body of water affects the moderate climate of Tokyo. The
closer a

region to the bodies of water, the moderate the climate is. The farther from bodies
of water, the

colder the climate or the warmer the climate.

Q6. Paris has a lower elevation. A place with low altitude tends to have higher air
temperature.

ACTIVITY 6: OCEAN CURRENTS

Answers to Questions

Q1. Kuroshio Current, Gulf Stream, Agulhas Current, North Equatorial Current

Q2. Labrador Current, Kamchatka Current, East Australian Current, Greenland

Current
Q3. Cold air because it carries cold water from the pole towards the equator.

Q4. Kamchatka Current brings cold water to the northeastern part of Japan making
the

temperature lower. Kuroshio Current brings warm water towards southern part of
Japan making

the temperature higher.

Q5. Ocean currents either warm or cool the air above them. When ocean currents
that bring cold

water move towards a coastal region, the temperature of that area decreases. When
the ocean

currents that take along warm air go to a land mass, the temperature of that place
rises.

ACTIVITY 8: IT'S GETTIN' HOT IN HERE

Answers to Questions

Q1. The thermometer inside the aquarium

Q2. The heat is trapped inside the aquarium.

Q3. The wall of the aquarium prevents heat from flowing out of the aquarium. In the
same

manner, the greenhouse gases absorbs heat and keep it from flowing out of the
atmosphere.

Q4. The greenhouse gases.

ACTIVITY 9: CO2 IS THE REASON!

Answers to Questions

1. 1.30F

2. increased by 100 ppmv

3. They are directly proportional. As the amount of carbon dioxide increases, the
global
temperature increases too.

4. It was highest in 2007 and lowest in 1909

ACTIVITY 1: CHARACTERISTICS OF STARS

Part A

Q1. What is the color of the filament as you dim the bulb? A1. The color of the
filament is red

Q2. What is the color of the filament as you turn the switch at full power? A2. It
becomes blue.

Q3. What happens to the temperature of the filament as the bulb becomes brighter
and brighter? A3. The temperature increases.

Part B

Q1. Why do the two flashlights have different brightness?

A1. The absolute brightness of the source and the distance from the source affect
the brightness of the flashlight.

ACTIVITY 4: DIFFERENT STAR PATTERN THROUGHOUT THE YEAR

Answers to Questions

Q1. Compare the photographs. What do you notice?

A1. Different patterns are formed in different months.

Q2. Why are some stars visible in March but not visible in September?

A2. This is due to earths revolution

Q3. What constellations are prominent during winter? fall? summer? spring?

A3. Canis Major, Cetus, Eridanus, Gemini, Perseus, Taurus, and Orion are seen
during winter or cold season. Aquila, Cygnus, Hercules, Lyra, Ophiuchus, Sagittarius,
and Scorpius are prominent on summer. During spring, Bootes, Cancer, Crater,
Hydra, Leo, and Virgo are seen. At autumn, Andromeda, Aquarius, Capricornus,
Pegasus and Pieces are prominent.
