BELLWORK
The diagram shows the movement of air during a thunderstorm.
The rising and falling of air during a thunderstorm directly results from ________________.
lightning
b. heat convection
c. precipitation
d. cloud formation

2. Let’s Review.. 1. Thermal energy is _____________.
light    b) wind c) sunlight    d) heat
2. Most thermal energy in the atmosphere is transferred by _____________________.
convection  b) radiation c) conduction  d) wind
3. A pot of boiling water is an example of what? 
a) conduction   c) evaporation
b) convection   d)radiation

3. One way penguins stay warm is through a thermal convection process
One way penguins stay warm is through a thermal convection process. For example, emperor penguins' feathers help to move warmer air toward their bodies. In addition, the low temperature of emperor penguins' feathers helps to insulate the penguins' bodies from the cold air.

4. Today’s Learning Goal: I can recognize how thermal energy can be transformed in our atmosphere.
Success Criteria:
Can I explain the relationship between heat and thermal energy?
Can I explain and provide examples of conduction, convection, and radiation as heat transfers in our atmosphere?

8. What is Temperature?
Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in an object.

9. (Typically used by Americans) (Used by the rest of the world)
Temperature Scales
Fahrenheit °F
(Typically used by Americans)
Celsius °C
(Used by the rest of the world)
Kelvin K
(Used by scientists)

10. Absolute Zero At absolute zero, all moving matter should stop.
– °C - Celsius
– °F - Fahrenheit

11. Temperature vs. Thermal Energy

12. Temperature vs. Thermal Energy
Low Temp = Slow moving particles (colder)
High Temp= Fast moving particles (hotter)

13. Temperature vs. Kinetic Energy

14. Temperature vs. Kinetic Energy
Low Temp = Low Kinetic Energy
High Temp= High Kinetic Energy

16. Temperature vs. Food Coloring Particles
Pick up a blue tub from the back table.
Look at the beakers labeled COLD WATER, ROOM TEMPERATURE WATER, HOT WATER.
Measure the temperature of each.
Take turns dropping ONE drop of food coloring in each beaker.
Do not stir or shake beakers.
Observe with your group which beaker the food coloring particles move the quickest in.

17. Let’s review…
Which temperature beaker did the food coloring particles appear to spread the slowest in? Why?

Describe the density of each layer (air pressure)
Explain how air moves within the layers

22. Layers of the Atmosphere
Video

23. TROPOSPHERE WE LIVE HERE! Densest layer 75% of the atmosphere’s mass
Gases are mixed
Weather takes place here

24. STRATOSPHERE Gases are layered here Thin air
OZONE LAYER (protects from sun)
Cool air low, warm air high

25. MESOSPHERE
Middle layer
Coldest layer
Meteors burn up here.

26. THERMOSPHERE High temperatures (1,000 degree Celsius or higher)
But No heat (particles are so far apart, they can’t transfer thermal energy)
LOW density

27. EXOSPHERE
Thinnest air
Outermost layer

28. Layers of the Atmosphere Game
In order:
TROPOSPHERE – feet
STRATOSPHERE – knees
MESOSPHERE – waist
THERMOSPHERE – shoulders
EXOSPHERE – head
EARTH – HOME POSITION
