4TH QTR

• Layers of atmosphere

  -Troposphere

  -Stratosphere

  -Mesosphere

  -Thermosphere

  -Exosphere
• thernometer

  -glass thernometer

  -alchol or mercury thernometer

  -digital thernometer
• convection occurs due to the collision of atomic particles in a heated material.
• good conductor produced gases, silver, copper, aluminum, and iron
• poor conductors are also called insulator produces wood, paper, and plastic
• greenhouse effect - water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, ozone, nitrous oxide, chlorofluorocarbons, fluorocarbons
• Method of charging

  -Friction

  -Conduction

  -Induction
• Charging by Friction involves the transfer of electrons by rubbing against each other
• Charging by conduction involves friction at first to charge an object
• another way of charging an object without any direct contact - Induction
• Types of meredian

  -prime meredian

  -greenwich meredian

  -antimeredian
• Longitudes start at the prime meredian, which correspond to 0 degrees, and divide earth into east and west
• it is a location that uses a chosen reference that will serve as the basis for its location - relative location
• gives the location that does not change no matter what happens to the surroundings - absolute location
• Absolute

  • the latitude and longitude of a place

  Relative

  • location of a place relative to another place

  similarities: both used to describe the position of a place on earth surface
• Land breeze where the convection current moves from the land onto the water
• Sea breeze a convection current where the cool air from the sea goes into the land
• Amihan - Cool and dry winds blow from the northeast
• Habagat - Warm, moist air flows from the southwest.
• Climate is the average weather of a locality over a long period of time (at least a 30 year period).
• convection - is a heat transfer through actual physical movement of a fluid (liquid or gas)
• radiation - can happen in empty space or vacuum
