RENEWABLE ENERGY

Renewable Energy film

Biomass

Aim: To compare the amount of gas that is produced from different types of biomass

  

Investigation.

What is biomass?
its a never ruining out source of energy What are the 5 types of biomass?

1.  hydro electric
2.  wood
3.  bio fuels
4.  wind
5.  solar

What are three benefits of biomass?

1. it combats climate change  
2.    can decrease pollution
3.    reliable source of power

What are three disadvantages of biomass?

1.   generates power on smaller scale
2.   can disrupt wild life and migration patterns
3.   power can be intermittent

Research the following types of Biomass.
You will need to:

Write a definition of the each fuel.

Answer each question

• How is it made?
• What is it used for? making energy
• Where is it made? Sweden, Austria, and the United States
• What is it made with? it was made with plants wood and more
• What countries use it?   pretty much all of the countries

Place 2 images of the fuel.

the water cycle

IM: TO LOOK AT THE WATER CYCLE AND HOW CLIMATE CHANGE IS AFFECTING IT.

Definition:

Scientific words:

• Evaporation. When water is heated by radiant energy it turns into water vapor.
• Transpiration. Evaporation from plants.
• Condensation. When water vapor cools, molecules join together and form clouds.
• Precipitation. When clouds get heavy the waters falls as rain, sleet, hail, or snow.
• Acidification: the action or process of making or becoming acidic.

We will be conducting an experiment that looks at the different ways that climate change is affecting the water cycle.

THE WATER CYCLE EXPERIMENT

Bag 1: Normal Water cycle

Bag 2: Water cycle with CO2 added: like Oceans in climate change

Bag 3: Water cycle with ice added: like Antarctica in climate change

Material:

1.  bag
2.  water
3.  soda
4.   vivid marker
5. bags
6. litmus 
7. food colouring

Steps:

1.  2 pot colouring food
2.  
3.  
4.  
5. 2 pot colouring food
6. in bag 2 i added litmus paper

definition: 

since of globial warming we will get less fresh water

Two Images:

findings:

the way it affects us is there are a more chance that it can flood more and the ice burgs will melt  pretty easily. oil and natural gas infraatructure is vulnerable to the effects of climate change and the increased risk of disasters such as storm, cyclones,flooding and long term increses in sea level

The Water Cycle: Bag 1	CO2 Water Cycle: Bag 2 Acid	Desert Water Cycle Bag 3
Does it cycle?	yes	yes	yes
Amount of Water	2	2	2
Acidity	1	3	1

Key: Water and acidity amount: 1 = none 

2 = small 

3 = large 

Other comments:

1. bag 1 cycled water

2. bag 1 had a small amount of water

3.acidily is bag 1 was low 

4. bag 2 cycled soda water 

5. bag 2 had a small amount of water

6. acidly is bag 2 was large]

7.bag 3 cycled desert water

8. bag 3 had a small amount of water

9 acidily is bag 3 was low

Conclusion:

the water cycle bag 1 doing ok but the coldness is blocking the sun

bag 2 the soda water experiment still waiting for it to work and it is red right now.

Draw a labelled diagram of the Water Cycle

Water cycle words:

1. Precipitation
2. Hurricanes
3. Acid rain
4. Evaporation
5. Carbon Dioxide
6. Water
7. Defirestation
8. Water vapour
9. Transpiration
10. Flooding

SOLO Hexagons Activity

TODAY YOU WILL BE INVESTIGATING THE EFFECTS THAT CLIMATE CHANGE HAS ON THE WATER CYCLE.

1. Using your SOLO hexagons poster write a paragraph about the different aspects of climate change.
2. Write about the following Climate Change concepts:

You can do these by powerpoint, embedding a movie , on your blog, on a doc or any other form of presentation. It is up to you.

term 3 clay construction art hurumanu

hey guys guess what it is term 3 and this is the first day and for period 4 and 5 we are still make characters but it is the start of period 5 so lets me give catch up at the start of us making clay stuff we started with groups then what our characters would be then we started making them then we started the backgrounds then we finished them and yea we are all most finished all the characters so yea here we are still 4 more weeks counting to day i think.

the writing project for art

the script for our clay. by the the clay video

will take time and it will be

publish with the script.

The wolf saw a bottle of leaked foot cream

but the wolf was depressed. The piranha

did not look depressed because he is evil

but the wolf spent too much time crying

about the foot cream.The wolf put on his

detective hat and searched but sadly his

feet hurt so much that he couldn't walk.

He dragged his feet to the wishing well

and it took him 30 minutes He wished for

2 things on how to find the foot cream.

The wishing well turned yellow and green

and spoke to the wolf the foot cream is

behind you. The wolf felt silly. 

But the foot creams was there he went in to

go get some money and then he made another

wish. His wish was that he could get foot cream

and then he got the foot cream.

my group project in maths

for the start of this week on math we are doing we are doing question in groups. my group tried doing 11 times tables i think. The questions were very hard so it was hard trying to find  the answer.

Me and my group we not very friends it was my first time working with them  so it was kinda hard what to talk about. Me and my group got the first answer done but the second we did find the answer its just that we didn't put it down in time. I say we did really good and worked as a team successful.

fosial fuel experiment

hello there guys today we were doing  fossil fuel we got given a sheet with a cookie and we had to draw a cookie and a forest and answer some questions then we got give a tooth pick an we had to collect 10 chocolate chips then we had to draw the cookie after wards and draw the informant then answer more questions
