EARTH SCIENCE Mid-Year Exam Review KEY IDEAS with IMAGES

CYCLIC Cyclic means a cycle. A repetitive pattern that is predictable. Examples: TIDES SEASONS MOON PHASES

OBLATE SPHERIOD The Earth is not a perfect sphere but very close! You can NOT tell by looking at it that it is NOT a perfect sphere! Roundness Ratio is .997 The equatorial diameter is slightly larger than the polar diameter.

Circumference of Earth

Latitude & Longitude

Altitude of Polaris = LATITUDE

EARTHS ROTATION West to East 1 Rotation = 24 Hours (1 day)

Foucault’s Pendulum – proves Earth’s rotation

Altitude of Sun & Length of Day Longest Day of Year EQUINOXES = 12 HOURS OF DAY / 12 HOURS Of NIGHT Shortest Day of Year

1 Revolution = 365 days (1 year) EARTHS REVOLUTION 1 Revolution = 365 days (1 year)

Eccentricity of Elliptical Orbit

Planet’s Orbital Velocity & Distance to the Sun

SEASONS

Moon’s revolution = 27.3 days (esrt) Lunar Cycle = 29.5 days

Doppler Effect / Red Shift

Time Zones

Quartz is hard because it has a tetrahedron structure

Sedimentary Rocks

Igneous Rocks

Metamorphic Rocks

Surface Area increases the rate of weathering

Stream velocity depends on slope & discharge

Stream Velocity & Erosion/Deposition

Deposition of Sediments

Glacial Evidence
