Tuesday 5/7/19 Bell Ringer: A system is something with parts that work together. The atmosphere is a system. What are the parts that work together? Hint: Think about what you saw in the video at the end of class yesterday
Atmosphere as seen from International Space Station How does the sun’s energy affect Earth’s atmosphere?
Energy at Earth’s Surface Absorb = energy from light strikes atoms and causes them to vibrate. The more an object's molecules move and vibrate, the hotter it becomes. Reflect = light energy is NOT absorbed and instead bounces off the object Radiate = light energy is absorbed by atoms and sent back out as heat
Exit Ticket Think about the greenhouse effect simulation we examined today. What could be a possible impact of the greenhouse effect on the water cycle? Record your idea on a notecard and give to Mrs. Burke when you leave.
